How to deal with Google "Unsafe Site" warnings

Google automatically checks websites and will flag them as "Unsafe" if they find malware, phishing attempts or other bad practices.

Because this is automated, on rare occasions, your store may get flagged incorrectly. You may see a message mentioning "malware", "harmful content", "deceptive pages", or "a security issue".

If your store has been affected, this is nothing to worry about and is a false positive. Follow the instructions below if your store has been affected, and the warning will be removed fast.

If you see a red warning message when browsing your store in Google Chrome, or if you see an issue in your Google Search Console area, then check it on the following link:
