I am not following this person...

I’m confused

Inappropriate?Me too. I had http://twitter.com/raquelcamargo show as my own update but i am not even following them.
Are we being hacked? -
Inappropriate?Someone's tweet has ended up in my timeline (http://twitter.com/rodbegbie)

This is the permalink for the tweet (although it 404s): http://twitter.com/nullalux/statuses/...
I’m violated

What's interesting about this bug is that the 'zombie' tweet is not attributed to you. I mean, when you look at the permalink, the tweet obviously belongs to @nullalux, not to @RodBegbie. Makes me wonder if it's a cache problem.
Anyway, if you haven't done so yet, please consider logging a support ticket at http://twitter.com/help so someone from Support can look at your account.
If you don't feel like typing up your issue all over again, I suggest adding this permalink -- http://gsfn.us/t/lg6#reply_608032 -- to the ticket so they can see your entry here. -
Thanks mdy -- I thought this was the "official" place to report such things. I'l report it to Support now. -
Inappropriate?This is not the result of a hack. Rather there are some data inconsistencies in a few cases affecting how updates are stored between our multiple databases. This is not good and can produce some odd behavior.
We're working on it - if you are reporting this behavior please include your username as well as the specific post you have seen out of place. -
Inappropriate?We believe we have corrected this problem altho we still have to clean up the previous instances of the problem. So those of you seeing the problem previously will continue to do so, but there shouldn't be additional reports.
(Let me know if there are). -
Hi. Jason. People are reporting that their Recent timelines have stopped updating (so I figure it might be related to this).
Two threads: http://gsfn.us/t/lgb and http://gsfn.us/t/lgc. -
Inappropriate?Hi, Jason. Please fix below twitter user's problem.

This URL is transfered to another twitter user's page.
Thanks. -
katarinax should be fixed -
Inappropriate?We're still working on fixing this problem, check the status blog for more updates as well:

"Also, some folks have been seeing another user’s profile when trying to view their own. This problem sometimes will resolve itself after a few hours and is caused by a problem with how we cache data. If you find yourself affected by this problem, please know that your profile has not been lost. And we are working to fix it."
Thanks for your patience!
