Hello Armor Community,

Thanks for bringing this up. This was a false positive detected by our team and should be corrected. If you're still experiencing the blocks, please power cycle your router.

I'm seeing the same messages starting overnight.

It is unclear whether this is a valid alert for a real problem or an error in the malware detection logic being used by Netgear.

If someone from Netgear could please investigate and comment that would be appreciated.

I agree. It seems they updated something last night that triggered this. All I can find online is that it is the Google Pay api but cannot tell if something had been hijacked.
