The social media site is threatening the multi-billionaire with legal action after his U-turn.
Shares in Twitter fell on Monday after Elon Musk announced he was pulling out of a $44bn deal to buy the social media platform.
It is the first time investors have been able to react to Mr Musk announcement on Friday that he wanted to pull out of the deal. Twitter has hired New York's Wachtell Lipton Rosen & Katz, which is one of the world's leading corporate law firms. The businessman had asked for evidence to back the company's assertion that spam and bot accounts make up less than 5% of its total users. Mr Musk believes that spam or bot accounts could make up to 20% or more of users.
