Google NOINDEX Scam

May 4, 2004 - 1:32 pm 0 — by

A thread at WebmasterWorld named Only homepage removed from google reports on sites losing their homepage from the Google index. Some people are reporting emails from the email address [email protected] that read:

The following urls/messages have been removed. Please contact [email protected] if you do not approve:

www.yourdomain.com/index.htm NOINDEX

Seems like a scam to me. Check the thread and look out for this.

Side note: Very busy day for me, so if I misquote or do not post enough today, please don't be mad. :)
