this is important to know for whom runs a wordpress site with pretty permalinks, means the post title appears in the browser bar, you find the site configuration in the dashboard menu, Settings, Permalinks
when you see in your logs something like site_url/?p=1234 it shows that someone tried to access your post py its pageID (1234) – and that shjould not happen when you use permalinks, the pageID as link is not published
how they get it then?
they run a fishing phase first in order to find the pageIDs in the shortlink tag of your posts and pages, like: <link rel=’shortlink’ href=’https://wphakka.com.br/?p=1358‘ />
they can use it in a smartway, retrieve only the latest post and then try all lower numbers in order to collect data of their interest in a more effective way
at this moment we do not care about their interests, but we care about that they use a camuflaged technique to get not published info about your site, what then is an illicit attempt … you are being under attack and being exploited, even if it is just an image heist
that source address (who came the attempt from) is now classified as GANGSTER BOT by our Security Framework and the final get request is not served, they get Aflred’s smile with me worry? me trolling gangster bots! message instead
NO IMAGE HEIST on Metro Framework proteced wordpress sites!
so now, what is with site_url/$paged=1234 which usual a nonexsting link – but looking like a normal pagination link from your latest posts, I explained how it works in a former Post here about SEO CRAWLERS Righ or Wrong?
that source address is then also classified as GANGSTER BOT and served with Aflred’s smile with me worry? me trolling gangster bots! message instead of the expected image source
NO IMAGE HEIST on Metro Framework proteced wordpress sites!
the whole thing is an organized crime camuflaged running under the sayings “we do nothing illegal, we just check your public site access” – what is a potential lie! they PROBE YOUR SITE and try to steal your original images!
using the expression Gangster Bots sounds funny, but it is exactly what it is, our Metro Framework Security System is protecting us from ruthless operating bigtechs and their global image heists
we are not victims, we are shooting back by publishing the truth about their criminal operations
