    My recent scans starting showing a number of “file appears to be malicious” errors. All of the files are in my /wp-content/cache/min/ folder. We use WP Rocket Cache plugin for caching. All of the flagged files are because of translate.googleapis.com, and we do use a google translate plugin on our site. Is this a false positive? An example from my scan results below:

    Filename: wp-content/cache/min/1/96234b9faf5675214e3ef96eac7e7c99.js
    File Type: Not a core, theme, or plugin file from www.remarpro.com.
    Details: This file appears to be installed or modified by a hacker to perform malicious activity. If you know about this file you can choose to ignore it to exclude it from future scans. The matched text in this file is: var h=’translate.googleapis.com’;

    The issue type is: Spam:JS/translate.googleapis.com
    Description: A link commonly found in spam files
