The detection of spam in social networking sites attracted the attention of researchers. Spam detection is a difficult task in maintaining the security of social networks. It is essential to recognize spam's in the OSN sites to save users from various kinds of malicious attacks and to preserve their security and privacy. These hazardous maneuvers adopted by spammers cause massive destruction of the community in the real world. Twitter spammers have various objectives, such as spreading invalid information, fake news, rumors, and spontaneous messages. Spammers achieve their malicious objectives through advertisements and several other means where they support different mailing lists and subsequently dispatch spam messages randomly to broadcast their interests. These activities cause disturbance to the original users who are known as non-spammers. Social networks can provide a range of benefits to members of an organization.
