Twitter provides a platform for users to upload and share ideas and content. Users may share Tweets posted by others using features such as Retweeting.
As a policy, we do not intervene in personal disputes between users. If you believe your Tweet has been posted without proper attribution and the situations below are inapplicable to your case, you can use an @reply or direct message to contact the other user.
Some automated spam accounts steal other users' Tweets in order to appear like a real person. If you think you might be experiencing this issue, please file a support request selecting "Reporting spam" from the drop-down. Our Trust & Safety team can investigate to determine if this is the cause. Please include links to the exact username you are reporting, and any relevant status updates (see this help page for detailed instructions on finding a Tweet's status link).
The Twitter Rules include a list of criteria we consider when investigating potential spam accounts. Accounts showing a pattern of repeatedly reposting others' content without attribution, particularly in an automated fashion, may be suspended for spam.
Copyright complaints concern the unauthorized distribution or republishing of material protected by copyright law. As stated in our Terms of Service, Twitter strives to uphold all relevant copyright laws. Our help page on Filing a Copyright complaint or DMCA Take-Down Notice has information on how to report copyright violations.
