advice Website automatically redirected to spam website

Isac · Aug 2, 2017

My website is getting automatically redirected to some spam website.

Shoutscoop.com

Can anyone help?

If it is, I wouldn't advise anyone visit the site!

Look at your page source, contact your web host, look for header redirects, run malware scans ...

have u tried disabling plugins?

thats the first redirect location, then redirects to few more domains

maybe start here ... ? .

I just went to shoutscoop and looks OK, OH but then I couldn't see the math quiz pics and I disabled adblock and yes off we go! I am on linux so I have no fear : smile :

AdBlock prevented it from happening so that may help you troubleshoot

Shouldn't be, unless someone inserted malware / adware / redirect into the theme...

There are two method to clean your website.

1. Hire some trusted, experienced person give him $$$ & he will clean your site.

2. Clean it your self, but don't forget to take entire website backup.

Have you contacted your hosting provider?
I have always had very high protection with mine.

a MySQL expert might be able to help you remove that

but .. the real question is : How did it get in there ?

just removing it wont solve the real issue, it might come back

Just spent 20 minutes solving math puzzles on your site, would be lovely to add hidden spoiler correct answers and hide comments where other people have already shared answers : smile :
