Hi, I am an SEO and internet marketing consultant. My client’s previous SEO consultant left a spammy comment with the alias Oracle Training at your blog which links to my client’s site. This is causing us serious trouble with respect to SEO and the comment does not look good on your blog either. We apologize for the inconvenience and we request you to remove that comment as well as this current one that I am making within 48 hours. If you don’t do so, I will have to use Google’s disavow tool to get the spammy comment along with the website link removed and, sorry to say this, but Google may not look too nicely upon you either for not having removed the comment. Thanks in advance for your cooperation.
