  Hi everyone,
  
  I'm experiencing a concerning issue with my website, https://www.hamptonbayhq.com. When I search for my site on Google, the search results are displaying irrelevant and suspicious content in Japanese, which I suspect might be due to a virus or malware infection. Here are the details:
  
  Problem Description:
  Recently, I've noticed that the search results for my website include product descriptions and reviews in Japanese, which are completely unrelated to my site's content. This issue started appearing suddenly, and I'm worried that my site might be compromised.
  
  Steps Taken So Far:
  1. Scanned my website for malware using Wordfence.
  2. Checked my site's files and database for any unauthorized changes.
  3. Reviewed my Google Search Console for any security issues or manual actions.
  
  Additional Information:
  - My site is hosted on Hostinger.
  - I have not made any recent changes to my site's content or structure.
  - The issue persists across different browsers and devices.
  
  Questions:
  1. Has anyone else experienced similar issues with their website's search results?
  2. What steps can I take to identify and remove any potential malware or viruses affecting my site?
  3. Are there any specific tools or services you recommend for a thorough security check?
  4. Could this issue be related to a browser hijacker, and if so, how can I resolve it?
  
  Any insights or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance for your help!
  
  Best regards,
  Hassan
