  New follows and likes are not appearing in my Notifications tab nor am I receiving email to notify me of new followers. My Settings are set to email me when I have a new Follower or a new Comment. I have three new followers. The most recent looks legitimate but the second and third ones look suspicious. The post I am referring to is http://magoffleash.wordpress.com/2013/04/03/five-books-five-friends-no-waiting/ Thank you.

  Hi there,

  I just took a look at your 2nd and 3rd most recent followers, and the reason they look “suspicious” is because they, unlike the rest of your followers, are not WordPress.com users who have signed up to have a blog, but instead have usernames so that they can do things like read and interact on the site. There aren’t nearly as many of them as the other kinds of WordPress.com users, but they do exist!
