"Unauthorized use of third party trademarks on a social media site may lead to legal liability for trademark infringement, dilution or unfair competition. While, in certain circumstances, it may be a permissible “fair use” to refer to a company and its product or service in a product review, blog, or status posting, it is not permissible to use the trademarks of others to create a false impression of endorsement, affiliation or sponsorship."
I would say that your account failed on "it is not permissible to use the trademarks of others to create a false impression of endorsement, affiliation or sponsorship."
