Deceptive Site Ahead Problem is one of the chrome security problems which can be caused due to some unauthenticated sources or scripts. Here is how to fix the Deceptive Site Ahead Problem Error in Chrome.

Google is very strict for its policies and when it comes to the privacy of the users then Google has installed many artilleries to protect the user’s personal data and account info. Chrome Browser by Google also comes with some of the similar security measures to provide users with safe browsing.

If Google finds any harmful site then it blocks the website for the safety of the user data and account credentials. One such security protocol is followed if Google finds any deceptive site with any harmful codes.

Note & Conclusion: I hope the post was helpful. Do comment below if you have any query related to the post. While some webmasters use these types of deceptive practices on purpose, others may be affected by it indirectly through advertisement displayed on their sites.

Google has created a support page for webmasters that offers instructions on how to troubleshoot the issue and resolve it so that the "deceptive site ahead" warning notification is removed from the site.

Webmasters whose site's were flagged for containing social engineering content may start the troubleshooting by opening the security issues report on Google Webmaster Tools. There they should find listed information such as sample urls that were flagged.

The actual removal may be problematic, as webmasters need to find the source of the deceptive content and remove it. Afterward, they need to request a review of the site which Google claims may take between two and three days to complete.
