Hackers<br \/>\n  target large numbers of sites all over the web in order to exploit the sites&#8217; users or reputation.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  One common way hackers take advantage of vulnerable sites is by adding spammy pages. These spammy<br \/>\n  pages are then used for various purposes, such as redirecting users to undesired or harmful<br \/>\n  destinations. For example, we&#8217;ve recently seen an increase in hacked sites redirecting users to<br \/>\n  fake online shopping sites.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  Once you recognize that your website may have been hacked, it&#8217;s important to diagnose and fix the<br \/>\n  problem as soon as possible.
