Twitter Spam

How to tell if it's spam on Twitter. Or sure signs that link will click to something NSFW,

1. There's no text just a link
2. The profile has less than 100 followers.
3. They say something nonsensical and unrelated to anything you've ever tweeted about.
4. You have just Tweeted about a) iPhone/iPad/Apple product b) jobs c) music

What do I do about it? Well, I don't know how effective it is but I block the user and report them as spam. It definitely makes me feel better.

What signs do you use to tell if a Tweet is genuine or spam? What do you like to do about it?
