Don't blame google for some site getting hacked because the site owner uses a non-secure CMS...

You might try contacting those sites that have been hacked...

Just go to the root domain name (hackedsite.com) and contact the whois listed contacts, just send them the hacked URL(s) and a note telling them they have been hacked.

Most folks will fix the problem and get the search engine spam and nasty software off their sites fast. Not to mention that google will penalize their entire site for not getting the hacked crap off their site in a timely fashion.

If you just want to report the hacked pages to google (google MAY contact the site owners before taking any action, which will delay removal of the hacked page from the index) use your google account and use the report spam option there... DON'T use the public accessible spam reporting page, no human will ever see it if you report it there.

These scumbag spammers are finding exploits in a lot of common CMS (Content Management Systems), the best way to get rid of all this crap is for the CMS programmers to start patching their products and writing new systems that are more secure.

>>>added stuff


By the By...

I have done this myself and it works...fast.
Not to mention that the site owners are very often grateful for being told their site was hacked...
I got a bunch of really good ‘free’ links from some very grateful site owners...
