You can use the Google Disavow tool. I don't think there is anything else you can do against these links.

Where is your site hosted? You got a shared server or a dedicated server? Joomla, Wordpress, HTML, PHP?

This has been going around.

I know of a number of people that have been hacked in the last few months, some were on wordpress and some had straight html sites.

I think a handful of the larger hosts were slow in rolling out some of the linux/cpanel updates that were needed since a few vunerabilities were discovered during the last year.

In one of the cases it was due to a weak ftp password, but in ALL other cases super strong passwords were used for ftp, cpanel, wordpress etc.

I have been hacked in different ways. About a month ago someone got into my site and put their affiliate loan link in. The crazy thing was that their was no code to my code and no evidence of their affiliate link. It boggles my mind to this day.

It is important to back up your data so if anything happens you can delete your site like you are reformating your hardrive then re install your site with your old files.

Another instance a few months ago I found a ton of links pointing at my from a viagratype site. I did a reconsideration request and used the disavow tool. It seemed to help.

If you are going to use the reconsideration request and disavow I would take the time to read articles and watch videos made by google to see what they are looking for. They want the reconsideration request very specific, there is a human reading it not a computer.

Good Luck and I hope your sites get back to full health.
