thousands of japanese Spam URLs created?

  • Few weeks ago, my website got hacked, however, I fixed it but seems like made 75K spam URLs on my sitemap which were indexed by google. Now, how can I deindex them? or should I 404 them?

    When you have fixed them, you made them to return 404 not found?

    If all indexed spam urls are returning 404, then Google (and others) will attempt to index that several times and then mark the page as gone.
    Ideally, if you can, you can make those urls to return status 410 instead of 404,
    this will tell the search engine, that the page is gone permanently.
