  I have over 50 emails that indicate an OUTLOOK.COM user is following my blog (faithwhisperings.wordpress.com) However, when I go to People>Email Followers, no names are displayed. Instead, I get message stating ‘You don’t have any email followers yet.’ Apparently these ‘followers’ are spam. There are no correlating Visits to my site. How can I block these’ Please advise. Thank you

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

  This is a known problem and Staff is working on a solution. Those fake followers are no threat, it’s just annoying. Depending on the mailclient you use, you could make a filtre to eliminate those emails.
