    Hello I have been targeted on many sites I have left comments on with Likes from a bogus site, 39 times this afternoon.
    A sample of these links are as follows
    id675296.urfqcv.website
    id2919733.tceyus.website
    id9088337.khhtdq.xyz
    id3877069.vezf.xyz
    id8922415.sexyoia.website
    id1885299.sexyqd.website
    id7343312.laznvu.website
    id5189716.xeohxe.xyz
    id2398890.leax.xyz
    id7491989.dsexoz.xyz
    These were just a few.
    All have a logo Picture, each one a different image. We had this problem a while back with a sex site..
    I hope you will be able to solve the problem.
    Thank you in advance

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    Hi there, the spammers changed tactics, which resulted in a good number of spam likes on people’s posts and comments. Our team made adjustments to our systems to block these, and are continuing to monitor the situation and make refinements.

    There is a master thread stuck to the top of the main forum page (in yellow) where you can post on this issue so that we can keep the discussion centeralized: https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/xyz-like-spam-is-back/
