I deleted a google blog. Now it has been hijacked
I deleted a google blog (I have others I have kept) and then, when going through my bookmarks, I clicked on the deleted blog and it showed up as a site full of ads and with bits of my posts still there, including my name to the posts. So I emailed blogger and told them, and they said I should fax them !!!. I haven't done that but I did click on the 'objectionable' content in the blog. Then the next time I checked, the blog was not accessible, and then next time I checked again - there it was again! What can google do to take down sites that have blogger URLs that I have deleted??
I’m frustrated and annoyed

Inappropriate?Oh, and of course, I can send the url to you, but not over this 'public address system' -

Inappropriate?I had rather hoped that the little notice at the top of the page that states that "2 google employees" are "listening and participating" would result in them joining in with something ...
Still, it feels slightly less lonely with your response than it did for the first 21 hours and 58 minutes...
Amy, could you have a little word with those nice people from google who are said to be listening, and ask them for their take on this? -
Inappropriate?They have actually been pretty good about responding to people, but I have a feeling they don't work weekends. Hopefully you'll hear something back tomorrow (Monday).

Inappropriate?Actually, Blogger is a distinct group within Google. We know some people over there and can ping them via the backchannel. Stay tuned. -
Inappropriate?Ah ha, progress?
thank you Thor, thank you Amy.
I will 'stay tuned' -
Inappropriate?I have written to you, Thor, with the info about this deleted blog.

Inappropriate?Our friends at Blogger have replied and we passed them your info. I hope it gets taken care of quickly now. With any luck they'll chime in here.

Inappropriate?Thor
I just checked and it shows a 404 error - page not found.
I will check again in a few days in case the person who hijacked the page manages to get into it again.
So thank you - it appears the friends at blogger came through. I am much obliged for your help.
I’m happy, feeling pleased, and thankful

Inappropriate?Oh good! Glad to hear it. Definitely let us know if it happens again.
I’m happy the spammers have been squashed
