    Anyone know what this means? I've never subscribed to these but they appear on my time line.

    Have I been hacked?

    I assume you are following these people?
    It seems you have synced your contacts with Twitter

    It's a sort of 'suggested friends' type thing from Twitter.

    You haven't followed them in Twitter. But have you followed them in any other contacts list that you have synched with Twitter (eg email, Facebook).

    I occasionally get messages like that when someone I know outside Twitter signs up to use Twitter.
