Strange link

    I have just noticed that one of my posts on my blog (oldish post) now has a link to a PPI site run by someone called Paul Mason. I certainly didn’t put it there and I can’t seem to remove it. I have tried deleting all the text in the post leaving just the heading but when I go to ‘View Post’ the text and the link are still there. Can anyone help? I have Wordfence, is there another plug in that would stop people being able to put links into a post. The link is in the text and doesn’t show up when I try to edit the post but is there when anyone looks at the post itself.
    Sorry this is so long, panicking a bit!

    I looked up the IP address of the roque link and it is 216.239.32.21 which seems to be Google

    I seem to have got rid of it by cutting the text, importing into word and removing the link, then pasting the text back into the post. It’s a bit worrying how this can happen though. I don’t know if it was deliberate or a glitch of some kind!
    Anyway I really do appreciate your help Evan and Andrew
