description Social networking platforms like Twitter, Instagram, Youtube, Facebook, Whatsapp have completely changed people's daily routine. Users of these social media networks have total freedom to upload anything that has political, commercial, or entertainment value. The data collected from these sources can be genuine or fake. There are no concerns or problems if the data published is true and relevant. The main difficulty arises while we deal with the spam data. So, this problem of spam data should be properly handled. In order to achieve a spam free environment, researchers have proposed numerous methods and algorithms for spam detection. Out of them few algorithms are implemented to detect the spam data in twitter. • We compare the outcomes in each scenario using various state-of-the-art word embedding techniques, such as Word2Vecv, GloVe, and FastText. • To account for the restrictions, two deep learning hybrid fusion classifier techniques—Text-based classifier and Combined classifier—are used in this work. These classifiers are built using deep learning techniques including GRU, LSTM, and CNN. • These methods will be evaluated using a range of measures, including F1-score, accuracy, recall, and precision. These actions could enhance the performance of the hybrid fusion approach.
