  Every time I make a new post in my comment spam folder appears a new comment that is short copy of my post in another site with the link to my blog. What is the point of doing of this? Is this legal, or fraudulent and can do any harm. I got no visits from those sites so I really don’t need such re-publishing. Can I stop it?

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

  So after some researching I understand that those sites are spamblogs or something? That they do harm for my blog?

  Hi! It sounds like these are spam blogs just linking to your posts. They won’t do your blog any harm and don’t represent a security threat of any kind. They’re just sort of a nuisance.

  The best thing to do is delete those spam comments and not approve them to be published to your blog via the the comment section…
