Neymar and his many false followers on Twitter

Neymar-and-his-false-followers 
As the Brazilian Neymar prepares for his first El Classico match, and has one of football’s biggest social media following on platforms like Instagram, Twitter, Facebook his avowed millions of followers could mostly be digital numbers.

Which means he’s been tweeting to a lot less people than he’s been led to believe.

The Social Media Management tool Status People, which enables Twitter users to vaingloriously find out who had the temerity to unfollow them, so that they can then furiously unfollow that person in turn; has done a study on some famous accounts, producing surprising results.

According to Status People, of Neymar’s 8.8 million followers, 4.3 million, or 49% of them are false, spam bots, fake Asian girls, or whatever.

Then another 3.2 million are deemed inactive, i.e. having not tweeted in the last 100 days, which means that only around 1.2 million of his followers are real.
