Google Safe Browsing warning: “Deceptive pages ahead” / “The site ahead contains harmful programs”.
Google Search Console shows a security issue for my website.
Google Safe Browsing has flagged my website as “Deceptive pages”.
I am not running any phishing, fake download, or scam content. My website is a product-selling website where customers place orders and sellers receive payment.
Please check my hosting account and website files for:
Malware
Injected scripts
Suspicious redirects
Malicious PHP files
Any server-side issue
Please run a security scan and clean or quarantine any malicious files if found. I want to make the website clean before requesting a Google review.
Beep boop, I’m a bot! I dug through the forum to get you started. I sometimes get things wrong though, so do with this what you will until a human has a look.
We can’t remove this warning, and I can’t scan your files for you. The knowledge base article below says only Google can remove a Safe Browsing listing, and only after you request a review. The warning comes from Google’s automated scanners, not from anything on the hosting side.
I found an article that covers this exact warning. It explains why sites get flagged, how to see what Google found, and how to request the review:
The article says new sites with little history are judged more strictly, and your hosting account was only created in mid-October. So this may be a false positive. The other possibility is that something got onto the site that you didn’t put there. The article’s checklist covers both: remove files you don’t recognise, update your software, change your passwords, and make it clear who runs the site and what it does.
What does the Security Issues report in Search Console say? Please post the exact issue type and the sample URLs it lists. That shows whether Google is pointing at a specific page, such as a copied login page or a page using another brand’s name, or at the site as a whole.
Firstly, excluding admin, none of us work for infinity free so couldn’t do that if we wanted to.
Secondly, this is a free, self service, service. Meaning unless something is actually wrong with the hosting infrastructure, noone is going to fix your site for you.
We can offer advice, but we can’t fix it.
Interestingly in don’t get the deceptive site warning when I visit your page. So you may already have fixed it
