		</div><p>US securities regulators are questioning Twitter about how it calculates the number of fake accounts on its platform.</p>
<p>The Securities and Exchange Commission in June asked the company about the methodology for calculating the false or spam accounts “and the underlying judgments and assumptions used by management”.</p>
<p>The agency’s Division of Corporation Finance made the request in a June 15 letter, shortly before Tesla CEO Elon Musk raised the issue as grounds to back out of a deal to buy Twitter for 44 billion dollars.</p>
<p>Such questions can be routine, and it was not clear whether the SEC has opened a formal investigation into Twitter’s fake accounts.</p>
<p>Messages were left on Wednesday seeking comment from the agency and Twitter.</p>
<p>The law firm Wilson Sonsini of Palo Alto, California, replied in a June 22 letter saying the company believes it adequately disclosed the methodology in its annual report filed for 2021.</p>
