Saw this in the forum earlier about Malware. https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/newspaper-theme-is-with-malware/

Just got a facebook messenger from a site visitor in Germany about being spammed from the site. See image here https://brandinginasia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/spam-image.jpg

Any ideas on what’s happening and what can be done?

Thanks,

Bobby

Spoke to host – they said it was on the user end and that the theme is fine with a scan of the files showing no problem

This kind of Malware is delivered by the ads on your site. We had the same 1-2 years ago. They attach their code somehow to ad campaigns of normal advertisers. We could identify the campaign containing the bad code and after we blocked it (and additionally some suspicious ad networks) it stopped happening. I’ve seen it on some pages lately, even on some big news sites.
