Plus, if you notice they all seemed to have something related to "this is a test". Must be something to do with how Tweetback works. Not familiar with it myself. That was my account mentioned above.

I've since then uninstalled it on my home blog and haven't had any since. The thing that has me wonderiong though if rather than be a cause of the spam tweets Trackbacks is only showing how prevelant the problem is on Twitter - that may be the more important question to be asking.
