We then filtered this by the number of followers to give ourselves a top 100 most followed list," ICMP said in a statement. "We then ran their Instagram and Twitter handles through IG Audit and Sparktoro's fake Twitter follower's tool to measure what percentage of their following was actually real," it added.
