Anyone else getting Twitter subscription spam?

I’ve gotten two notifications tonight of new people following me on Twitter. Both were obvious spam. (One was a user called freemagazine. Subtle.) Anyone else getting those?

    Twitter spam is getting to be a problem, but at least it’s a little easier to control than email spam. And from what I’ve seen, Twitter seems to be doing a decent job of suspending offender accounts.

    Yeah, I’ve had a couple in the last two days. Nothing concerning though.
