Seems like an script is using your account to grow something that looks like a valid user, then they will start spamming. Sadly, twitter doesn't care about non-famous users.

Pretty scary this new trend. They could create a replication bot and get seemingly original content avoiding deletion for spam from twitter, but still being able to inject spam in some of the tweets.
