Do I own a spam blog?

I received a letter from Google only to tell me that I own a spam blog? But why? How? Did I violate any rules of Blogger? Or some individual(s) playing tricks on me by trying to malign me or my site . God forbid.

“Do Unto Others As You Would Have Others Do Unto You.”

Here’s the exact email they sent me this morning. What a way to start the day?

To get to the bottom of this incident I requested them (Blogger) to conduct a blog review otherwise my site will be deleted in the face of the blogosphere in 20 days just like that.  Even if some inherently fuzzy automatic spam detection system caused this, the incident drives me nut today. Is this a cause for concern? Definitely yes especially for a ‘clueless’ blogger like me.

Is this an isolated case? Have you encountered a similar incident like this one? What is your initial reaction? And what did you do to remedy the situation? Please let me know your experience on this. Thanks for sharing.

Now, just before publishing this entry, Blogger is requiring me to fill out their word verification box. What the?
