What would you do...

I'm guessing it's a fake account/bot which pop up a lot on IG and FB as well. Or they could be a new account. If there really is a person behind the account, you can just prevent them from following you if you're uncomfortable.

Do what you feel most comfortable with.

It is not a fake account.  Nor is it a bot.  Why does everyone think that?  When my account was new I had zero followers and I followed one. I only joined to be part of a "twitter party" because I had the chance to win prizes through a site I was a member of.

I get that it was a new account.  People seem to be jumping to conclusions or reading things that aren't there. I am not worried about it.  I am not afraid of him.  He lives on the other side of the world and doesn't have a clue who I am or where I am.  I follow accounts all over the United States. I just was curious what others would do.  I blocked him immediately.  When people follow me I usually look at their bio.  If it is totally opposite of everything I stand for I block them.  And a lot of times when it is just from another country.  Most likely he was going to ask me for money.  I had that happen a couple of times.  The follow you and tweet back and forth a couple times then if they can get to your DM they ask for a donation for something.  Not going to happen.

I don't do Twitter so I wouldn't know what to do.

Yeah, I block them too.

There are people on Facebook who wants to friend you.  I usually take a look at their page and I go from there.  Usually I say no.

If I did not know them there is no way I would accept a friend request.  My great aunt accepts every request that comes her way. She has over 1000 friends and knows less than 1/10th of them.  She has been hacked and had people set up accounts in her name as well.
