Website Redirecting to Spam or Scam Sites? How to Remove a Malicious Redirect
If your site sends visitors to spam, scam or adult sites, especially from phones or Google results, it has been hacked with redirect malware. Change your passwords, find and remove the injected code in the files and database, update everything, and check Google Search Console for security warnings.

Questions
Why does the redirect only happen sometimes?
Redirect malware often targets first-time visitors, phones or search traffic so the owner doesn’t notice.
Will Google penalize my site?
Google may show warnings or drop pages while the hack is active. Cleaning it up and requesting a review usually restores them.
