Case Study: Resolving a Compromised Website with False-Positive Malware Results

Introduction
This document outlines the steps taken to fix a compromised website, url.com, which was showing false-positive malware results.

Initial Steps
Malware Test:

Visit Sucuri Website.
Input the website link: url.com.
Perform a malware scan.
Security Plugin Installation:

Ensure the Wordfence plugin is installed on the website.
Perform a full scan using Wordfence and address any security issues identified.
Identify Vulnerable Plugins:

Check for plugins that do not show malware but may inject malicious scripts, including:
Snippet Code Plugins
3rd Party Plugins with outdated or no longer maintained updates
Verification Steps
Google Transparency Report:

Visit the Google Transparency Report.
Enter the website URL: url.com.
Ensure the transparency report shows no issues.
Take screenshots of the transparency report for documentation.
Appeal Process:

Appeal through the Google Ads Portal under the Compromised Site Policy.
Appeal Process via Google Support
Initial Appeal:

If the self-appeal is unsuccessful, proceed to Google Support.
Contact Google Ads Support:

Navigate to Google Ads Support and select "Contact Us."
Follow the steps to reach the chat support:
Click "Next" on Step 2 and Step 3.
Select "Chat Now."
Chat Support Request:

Use the following message template:
"Hi Google Team,

I am having an issue with a compromised website. I have already made changes to the website. The malware detectors show no errors, and the transparency report is clear. I made a self-appeal on Google Ads, but it turned out to be a false positive. Can you please run a scan on your side and let me know if there are any compromised links? If not, please reactivate Google Ads.

I am requesting again to rescan the website and let me know.

Thank You."

Follow-Up:

Convey the message to chat support 2 to 3 times.
Google Team should respond within 24 hours with an email confirming no malware detection and the reactivation of Google Ads.
Additional Tips
Case Reference Number:

Always keep the case reference number for future reference.
Identify Cause:

Issues may be caused by APIs or 3rd party plugins no longer updated or supported.
Ensure all installed plugins are regularly updated.
Ad Campaign Management:

If past ads are disapproved for more than 30 days, either delete or appeal to get them running or removed for a successful ad campaign.
Conclusion
By following these steps, you can resolve issues related to compromised websites and false-positive malware detections. Ensure regular updates and careful management of plugins to prevent future occurrences.

Thank you.

Hi Everyone,

We usually deal with payments through the banking process instead of PayPal!!

Why is that?

Because PayPal charges a significant number of fees when receiving and withdrawing amounts.

This leads to an increase in the final price of the project.

We strive to adhere to the budget we provide and make the process hassle-free for both clients and ourselves.

We offer local bank transfers in the US, UK, Europe, UAE, Japan, and Oceania.
