Danny and Matt April 26th Within Google Webmaster Central, there's the ability to file a reconsideration request. However, Google says this is an algorithmic change - IE, it's a penalty that applied automatically, rather than a human at Google spotting some spam and applying what's called a manual penalty. Because of that, Google said that reconsideration requests won't help with penguin. I was told: “Because this is an algorithmic change, Google has no plans to make manual exceptions. Webmasters cannot ask for reconsideration of their site, but we're happy to hear feedback our other change on our webmaster forum.”
Matt Cutts on G+ July 20: “If you received a message yesterday about unnatural links to your site, don’t panic ...it’s not necessarily something that you automatically need to worry about.”
Don’t Panic? You may or may not be getting a spanking.

Google’s new Find Backlinks by Date Google found them.
