Come on man. This isn't like someone calling you a liar, or your momma fat.
This is someone claiming/representing themselves as affiliated with a publicly trading company for the purposes of public awareness about said company. People could possibly buy or sell shares based on this information. (That obviously wouldn't be too smart... but hey this country has warning labels on plastic bags).
So YES, absolutely, this is worthy of a response from the company/CEO either way. How hard is it for this honest, hardworking, business man that has the best interests of the company and shareholder in mind to simply answer the question?!
Just put yourself in any CEO's shoes. Someone creates a fake account and starts putting out information under the pretense that they represent your company in some capacity. You would do nothing? And if shareholders are calling and emailing the company to ask about this account, and you do/say nothing? Might not make you complicit with the fraudulent account, but sure as hell would make you negligent in protecting your own shareholder's interests.
If Brian can't even acknowledge whether a twitter account is fake or real... what would it take like 5 minutes to put a post on the real company twitter account, or a 1 sentence statement on the company IR webpage... then I seriously doubt we'll ever here from him again.
