Twitter Problems??

Anyone else had Twitter problems today?
First they said I was a robot and I had to be texted a 5 digit number to re-access my account (ironic this was an automated Twitter robot that did this)
Next they reduced my following list froma few thousand to around 800
Then they fixed it and all my 'following' was back
Now, my 'following' list is down to around 100 now

    I had the robot thing too, I hadn't even tweeted that much today at that point. Didn't notice any drop in following/followers though.

    Yeah it was all a bit messy for a day or two. And then it was back to normal. When it went back to normal I started getting loads and I do mean LOADS of DM's from accounts I foolow welcoming me, thanking me for following and offering me 10% off their shop etc. Still been getting a few today. Must have had a few hundred.

    Report it, from a quick google it's a glitch but who knows.
