  Hello,

  I have been getting many notifications of email followers that appear to be spam over the last few weeks. These followers do not appear in my list of email-only followers under Site Stats. What’s going on and how do I stop this?

  Thanks,
  Sarah

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

  Hi Sarah –

  This is a known issue that we are working on. The spam is removed before it ever reaches your “followers” list. While it is annoying there’s not a security threat to your site or account because of this.
