: What can I do if someone else used my Google Analytics tracking code to spam me? Today when I'm checking my Google Analytics report, I got the warning: Google Search Quality has detected

Today when I'm checking my Google Analytics report, I got the warning:


Google Search Quality has detected that one or more sites associated with the property ****** likely has been compromised.

A 3rd party might have modified existing content or added new spam content to your site. To protect your users, Google Search results might label your site as "This site may be hacked". Google Search might also serve an older, safe version of your site.

The following site(s) appear to be serving compromised pages:
******.com/

A compromised site can harm users by serving malicioius software (malware), collecting personal information, or by redirecting users to sites they didn't intend to visit.

You should take action immediately. If you already use Search Console, log in and check the Security Issues section to see specific examples of the pages that are affected and fix the issue. If you’re not familiar with Search Console, learn more about the steps you should follow to fix your site on google.com/webmasters/hacked.

What should I do in this case?

This is really dirty, this website stole my code and removed my ads code but forgot to remove my GA tracking code.

In google analytics, you can create a filter to exclude all traffic to the hostname that has your GA code.

To do so click on admin > All filters > Add filter


Give a name to the filter
Click on your website in the list and click add
select filter type: "exclude"
Choose "traffic to the hostname"
Choose "that contain"
Enter the domain name of the website that stole your Google Analytics code.
