#Bqhatevwr: Scott Brown's Account Sends Twitter Into A Frenzy

BOSTON (CBS) – Former Senator Scott Brown's Twitter account caused a bit of a frenzy overnight.

But not for any reasons you might expect.

While there was one cryptic tweet that may have referenced Brown's possible plans for his future, there were no major announcements.

Brown's account sent out a series of tweets just before 1 a.m. Saturday.

One of the tweets, which simply read "Bqhatevwr," was apparently so popular, it wound up trending worldwide.

Brown's account also tweeted out what appeared to be a grammatically incorrect statement.

"Your brilliant Matt," it stated.

It appears that "Matt" is @mattinsmrvlle, who responded to a tweet from Brown earlier in the night that read, "Yes. Get Ready."

The former senator, who is believed to be considering another run for senate, deleted the tweets early Saturday afternoon. He has yet to comment on them.
