Researchers have claimed that trolls can be identified in just 50 tweets. The algorithms identify linguistic patterns in tweets in order to distinguish deceptive 'troll' messages, which aim to achieve a specific purpose. It is to be noted that trolls start repeating words and word pairs later than normal users, due to their attempts to influence many different accounts at once. Trollers create trouble for most users.
