Help i am beeing blackmailed by another webmaster

[supereek]

Hi :yield: i have a problem,

I recently started a new nicheblog on a low competition keyword. There was only 1 other adsense blog about the same keyword and that blog didnt seem to be updated and also looked crap and overcrowded with ads.
Anyways.. i started my blog, made better articles, a good theme etc.. I started ranking, got the page 1. When suddenly this:

From: XXXXXXXXXXX
Subject: F#ck you

Dear assh#le, i found your blog on page 1 for MY KEYWORD. I want you to know that i picked this keyword FIRST and you shall remove your website ASAP!
If you dont remove it i will mass click your adsense ads from my own pc and various proxies until you get adsense banned!!!!!!! So f#ck you and remove the blog now!

Wtf, like the internet is his?! :smashfrea What can i do.. i don't want to get my adsense account banned.... i was theorycrafting and tought about saying back to him "If you do that i will purchase 200k xrumer/senuke links to your website and get you sandboxed in 24 hours!" lol, is that something you think i shall say or not?


ps. so many idiots online :yo:

 

[PandaDomo]

They'll most likely be able to filter out the fake clicks Adsense, they aren't that dumb

I think you should probably be fine if you get click-bombed.

 

[phirex]

hahaha
"MY KEYWORD"
I would send the email to adsense staff just in case
and wait for reply from them
meanwhile, just dont do anything and wait for response

 

[ferma231]

Write him : Cool story bro.

Or ask his website, when you get it, try to get all info about that sucker, and just send all details and tell you will find him and beat lol
I hate these people and i like how they shut up when you send them some info they think cant be leeched, such as IP

Which is easy to find from email , and when you get IP, you can get location. domain name if im right and way more info

Good luck bro

 

[Duffers5000]

Tell him you have forwarded his message and details to g00gles web spam team.And tell him if he decides to send you any further threatening messages you will be notifying the police. Dont bend over to meat bags like this and don't try and play him at his game.

 

[SocialMediaManager]

Well it has already happened to me before
Infact this month that when i started ranking on Page 2 i was clickbombed and adsense Disabled my account next day

 

[CoffeeLoverr]

lol

if he send me mail like this. Firstly I forward to G. Web Spam Team and than visit Fiverr ^^
if you use WP you should research for wp click Bomb plugin

Good luck

 

[prab1996]

i think you can stop adsence for few months
and try bidviser or clicksor if he will mass click you will get great benefit or pay per click ads like make a button same as adsence and put a adfly or adfocus link in it they pay per visitor you will get more than adsence
or if you are on blogger then add me as as author i know so many tricks to f*** it
or pm me if you not understand it i will help to earn great revenue and f*** him

 

[G-T-R]

PM me his url :d

 

[dog-tag]

-Don't reply to him, you'll only spur him on.
-Report him to the adsense team and tell them about this.
-In 2 months time DOS his site offline and fire xRumer at it.

He's a silly lil boy, be the snake in the long grass and get him when he think he's OK.
Nobody owns a keyword, but I'd make him suffer for my own satisfaction.... I hate bullies!

 

[BrianKade001]

Please don't show that you're scared. The basic motive of such retards is to scare the shit out of people and get achieve their purpose, but if you show that you won't bulge down and threaten him to file a police complaint, then see his reaction. As Ferma rightly pointed out that for this you need to extract as much information as you can. Once you have sufficient information, then be confident. I don't think you should be scared of click-bombing. Gone are the days when people used to do this. It's an outdated method. LOL

 

[oliver twist]

I agree with Duffers and dog-tag.

report the MF to Google and pause your adsense account for a while.
Also, send him a message saying that he has been reported (with a copy of the report message) and he will stop.

There's no need to do anything else.

Good luck.

Tell him that your mother first thought of his name to be considered giving it to a dog or a cat and would that mean that your mother owns him. Lol

Nobody owns a keyword and nobody can. That's the reason there is a term called SEO. its to rank better than your competitors.

 

[DevMask]

Send him a strong reply which says what could do to his website if he click bomb you. Try to gather some personal information about him which he may not expecting. If he's using fake information, send a complaint to the domain registrar. You must consider to forward his email to Google Web spam team also.

 

[Conor]

Put the keyword on BHW

 

[verilix]

Just do what the few sensible people have said. Forward the email to Google. Ignore what he said. Replying, retaliating, etc., will end up causing more trouble than gain in the end.

Go to Google forum ask the question and seek help there.
Usually Google approach for this case is they can easily identify repeating clicks but they will not help small publishers because they always think it's not Google job to make the thing easy for publishers and it's publisher responsibility to take care about it.(Just like when you paid someone do something you don't expect you going to help him.) For them it is much easier to disable problematic publisher then help them solve it since most of their system is automated and new small publsihers are keep joining everyday. They will expect you to take down adsense completely on the web and wait till you solve with the person.

Suggestion:
1.Take down adsense for week, inform Google to see whether they got reply you or give any suggestion.
2.Find open source script for ads serving which prevent ads appear on same IP, cookies and few more option to add it urself.
3.If unlucky still doesn't stopped him then just go adsense appeal. Usually they value ur content and stuffs.
4.Denied appeal, move on to other ads.

Another solution I would advise(If no reply from Google for long)
Find a big publisher website that serve adsense and copy their adsense code down put on your web. Reply with the jackass say click as much as he like because you will not get banned coz you know some secret. When you free you make a screen send him say thanks him you had make $100, ask him do more. After he click for long and see the ads still keep appear you make big buck he will give up. Google usually don't ban big publisher even if they ban, you not care it .

If you want really want to have Google support you try be more active in their new products. Occasionally I got invited to their activities in Singapore like 1 to 1 suggestion on my web SEO/ webminars/ conference. There you ask question will get more attention.

 

[R4Z0rA07]

Dox him (finding personal information) and send it to him in the reply saying you have reported his act to the Adsense team and any further threatening by him will be reported to the Cyber Crime Dept of your country. Also tell him that the Email will be forwarded to his Webhost which will result in his own website being taken down.
Don't engage in bad activities yourself as if the case gets escalated to Police, You have to stay clean.

"My Keyword" What an ass hat. I think one of the best ways of handling it is knowing Google is not on your side.
You are just a small time guy in their eyes and not worth anything more than the automated system. Although do not let that stop
you from contacting Google. Wait him out I doubt anything really happens.

 

[12040]

i think i can send this kind of email to youtube, fu*k you, video is my keyword, lol.
forward the email to google so they can have a laugh too.
