    I received a couple of funny emails this morning saying my sites had been reported for spamming google and will be banned for duplicate content, i think it may be a competitor just trying to give me a fright, it didnt look official enough to be from google, problem is they used my websites booking form so i have no idea who it came from. on the form where it requests a name they put google. My question is, do google take the time to notify you if they do ban your site?

    its fake just ignore it they're trying to scare you
    dont be scared ;)

    Message me with your site if you want me to take a look.

    I'm 99% sure it's fake.

    But watch out too if they have other dirty strategies like putting your link on bad neighbors or anything else aside from that move.

    sadly there are a few emails like that doing the rounds at the moment, always check the senders real email address, i am getting hotmail ones at the moment... please confirm all your details or your account will be deleted, but the email address is from something@gmail lol... i wonder if anyone falls for these anymore.
