Why did Google Ads deny my site for malicious software?

Topic summary

Google Ads flagged www.delightboutique.com for “malicious software” and denied the site. The poster indicates Google believes there is malware on their page.

Actions taken: They reviewed similar cases in the Shopify community and ran malware scans using suggested third‑party testing sites, which did not find any infections.

Context: “Malware” refers to software intended to harm users or systems; Google Ads disapproves sites that appear to host or distribute malware to protect users.

Request: The poster asks for help diagnosing and resolving the discrepancy—why Google Ads detects malware when external scans do not—and shares the site URL for review.

Status: No resolution or confirmed cause yet. No specific error details, scan reports, or screenshots provided. Key open questions include which Google Ads or Google Safe Browsing alerts were triggered, and whether any scripts, apps, or theme customizations could be causing a false positive.

Hi there,

Google considers there is a malware on my page. I read similar posts in the Shopify community and running a test with suggested website does not identify any malware.

I would appreciate your help.

THank you
