Block Twitter Spammers with TweetBlocker
On twitter, you can’t always control who follows you, or can you? With TweetBlocker, you can get a report of all your followers and they are broken down into categories A,B,C,D or F based on the quality of the twitter account that is following you. You can block your account en masse from D or F followers, which are accounts that are either inactive or have a very poor follower to followee ratio.
Low quality spam accounts typically follow massive amounts of twitter users but have few followers in return, they also constantly promote without engaging in reply’s or retweets or active conversation. Stale accounts just haven’t tweeted in extremly long periods of time. You can click details for each account to learn why the grade is what it is, and you can decide to block or just do nothing.
This is a good way to help trim your spammers, and the best thing is when you block an account, it is not able to see your tweets on twitter so you are effectively invisible to that user so they can’t setup bots to auto reply you with a spam pitch whenever you trigger their keywords.
Just another userful twitter tool to promote.

I wonder if Twitter actually blocks the accounts that one reports as spam? I hate those tweets where there's an advertisement or link and it just mentions 3-5 usernames, so you are 'forced' to see it because it appears in your "mentions-list". And I don't even know those users, they just take my name from somewhere and include it in their ad.
