I Should B shaking my fist

Oh I AM shaking my fist!

 In the air! 

At a random company in India!!!! 

I have been spammed! 

Me! 

Ugh

So as a blogger I have a stats page that lets me know the amount of activity on my page (how many times it has been viewed). I go and look at it today and it said 33 views. I was like wow. I mean I didn't even post today (or recently). It was from a host site I didn't recognize so I clicked on it. It took me to some weightloss page.

 A page I've never heard of or seen before today. 

I decided to google the site. 

Googling things is pretty much my answer to all conundrums. 

The result is I HAVE BEEN REFERRAL SPAMMED. 

This means that they are trying to get me (the blogger) to click on this unknown site to increase traffic to their site. These sites are not actually viewing the page and the only person that gets scammed is ME. so yep I am pissed and annoyed. I am mainly angry at myself for clicking the stupid link. 

Please learn from me. DO NOT CLICK ON THE LINK!! 

Okay I am going back to study. I guess this is what I get for being distracted by blogs. 

Have a good day bloggie world

  1. Ugh, spammers are annoying. I ended up closing down a blog years ago only because some spammer was leaving very inappropriate comments on my posts.

  2. Lol, I'm sorry you fell for the spam, but I did enjoy you telling us about it! I really don't understand what the purpose of this spamming is. All it did was piss you off, not make you want their product or refer it to others.

    1. Apparently I am lucky. I did more research and most people end up seeing porn sites or getting viruses. Lesson learned, do not click on the site.
