Twitter Spam?

In the last couple of hours, I’ve gotten several notification emails from Twitter that person X was now following me.  As far as I can tell, it has to be some sort of spam or bot.  All of the usernames follow the basic formula <girl’s name><number>, and the accounts are usually deleted shortly after I get the email.  When I manage to catch an account before it’s deleted, it always has a link to the same URL, which I’m not going to mention and potentially up this person’s pagerank.

I hope Twitter can take care of this, because it’s getting annoying.
