@askusedu so far it was updated but I just forgotten about it , but it seems many competitors and spa-mers increaser are taking it as job to make backlinks so you need at least monthly check up and disavow list of them otherwise if you are SS are more than 50 % then you may end up from google permanently

@Safnah-com were you able to get any solution to this?
I have a similar attack on my website. My website https://askusedu.com/ is just a few months old, and it seems some competitors have create a lot of spam backlinks and increased my spam score to 28%.
After checking MOZ's articles, I can assure that i have all the necessary information on my website like genuine contact details, email, phone number, google tracking codes, and I'm not performing any spammy or shady activities.

How i can Reduce Spam score of my website
Hi everyone, I'm reaching out to the community for some advice on improving my website's spam score. I've been using the Moz Spam Score Checker and my website, sngplbill.pk, currently has a score of 7%. While this isn't exceptionally high, I'd like to take steps to bring it down as low as possible, ideally under 1%. One factor I've identified that might be contributing to this score is a number of backlinks pointing to my site has a much higher spam score (over 80%). (screenshot attached)sngplbillscore I'm wondering if the community has any recommendations for how to address this situation. Here are some specific questions I have: Does disavowing the backlinks from spamy site seem like the best course of action?

How to get rid of bad backlinks
So I noticed my rankings going down and spam score going up. So under my spam score there are over 100 links for different websites but ALL redirect to semalt.com I researched it and it says they hijacked a bunched of backlinks but don't know much more. How can I get rid of all those backlinks? I was told I could use the disavow tool but apparently that can hurt my ranking as well. The semalt.com site has no backlink to me - it looks like the pages that have/had my backlinks, they've redirected to them. For instance this is one of the links http://www.oxvideos.xyz/indianantyphotoxxx 422005fb-9240-40a4-8b65-f5b1f5079dea-image.png
