altogen.com[edit]

Continuing spamming of this reagent company website into WP. User continues despite warnings. Enough then. Jytdog (talk) 01:58, 7 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

creditcardsfile.com, revholics.com, mybrowserupdates.com, pangu-jailbreaks.net[edit]

User was blocked for 36 hours for spamming multiple domains across Wikipedia. Diff: creditcardsfile.com 1234; revholics.com 123; mybrowserupdates.com; pangu-jailbreaks.net 12. None of these sites have any reference potential: they're all fairly new, link to random casino sites and sketchy banks, etc. Likely part of a link farm for SEO purposes.

Pissedconsumer.com website was added to the media-wiki blacklist in August 2016 by User:Cyphoidbomb for the following reason: "As of this note there are about 20 links across the project. The site redirects to "Four Seasons Sunrooms Complaints and Reviews" at four-seasons-sunrooms.pissedconsumer.com/ which is obviously not a useful source of any kind. Both sites should be blacklisted, and I'll gladly do the honors." More information can be found here - <https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=MediaWiki_talk:Spam-blacklist&oldid=735469124#bellitere.com_and_pissedconsumer.com>

This website is one of the leading platforms in consumer advocacy industry where users can share their opinion on products, services from different companies.

I do not agree with user's "Cyphoidbomb" decision. Pissedconsumer.com website was subjected to black SEO attack ordered by Four Seasons Sunrooms company. Please, find here more information - pissedconsumer.com/blog/2017/09/negative-seo-on-pissedconsumer-and-its-effects/

Kindly ask you to remove site from "media-wiki blacklist”. Please contact me again if I can help in any way.

Taken at face value, pissedconsumer.com appears to have been the victim of a "Joe job" (getting pissedconsumer blacklisted by intentionally getting caught spamming links to pissedconsumer.com). I don't know enough about this kind of thing to evaluate the authenticity of the claims being made at the blog post linked above, but I would recommend an open-minded investigation by those that are more familiar with spamming/black-listing.
