Google frequently crawl with standard user agents to make sure you're not cloaking (serving different content to Googlebot than users will see). Has been a thing for some time.I have never in my 15 years as a webmaster seen Google use bogus user-agents. Do you have any proof of this? I'm interested in learning more.
I've used many link cloakers for campaigns in the past but have never seen Google hit like this under any user agent.Google frequently crawl with standard user agents to make sure you're not cloaking (serving different content to Googlebot than users will see). Has been a thing for some time.

too many tiktokers.someone is after you! they use dark seo to get you down. enemy should be close
Please stop spreading misinformation. It doesn't help the OP, it hurts. Thanks.someone is after you! they use dark seo to get you down. enemy should be close
Please stop spreading misinformation. It doesn't help the OP, it hurts. Thanks.
Explanation:
First, you said it was a DDoS. No, it had all the signs of a crawling campaign, not a DDoS. 60K in a day is not even close to a DDoS. Now you're saying its "dark seo", without the least bit of evidence, citing an enemy. And again, no signs this is what it is.
Crawlers hitting websites in large numbers is normal - with 40% to 70% of traffic (depending on niche) of all traffic being web crawlers.
To all...
Bytedance is an AI crawler (by TikTok as previously noted by @MentaL ) and a poorly coded one. It does fetch robots.txt, but does not appear to respect it, and also does not respect the crawl-delay directive. Cloudflare's AI blocking, from what I can see in my logs, sometimes blocks it, but not always. Based on my research, they are scraping at very high rates in an attempt to catchup in the AI market. I recommend blocking them along with other AI bots.

I'm not saying Google are using bogus headers, I am saying that Google may have cached the site and then the bot/crawler that is hounding his site (which is not google, but a rouge bot/crawler/user) with queries is using a fake header by initially finding the site VIA Google, this is why I asked if his NEW site was indexed, to rule this out as a THEORY. Per user agent; "67.0.2768.182" This does not exist or at least I cannot find anything...I have never in my 15 years as a webmaster seen Google use bogus user-agents. Do you have any proof of this? I'm interested in learning more.
I never said DDOS attack, this user did;
Man, I think I'm overworked. You know whos fault this is? my daughters. Too much painting and other nonsense. I am going to bow out because I am way too tired.That is the member he quoted, not you.

When the man morphs into his username...I will be real with you. The past two weeks I've not stopped. I'm into bodybuilding, prepping for debut, came off a surgery and off a cut into bulk. I'm redoing my house, painting, deco, moving all rooms,. I'm managing a house hold doing laundry, dishes, whilst working and all this **** and beating myself up daily. I am exhausted lol.
