This is the first I've seen this (we don't use Wix, which is even worse for the person's attempt to get info) if this is a new one doing the rounds might be handy for those that do web dev or maintenance to let clients know not to get suckered in:

Dear Merchant.

Your website has been flagged by upstream threat monitoring systems due to unauthorized redirection behavior.
This means certain content, links, or embedded code on your site is triggering automatic redirections to external destinations that are considered unsafe or non-compliant with internet security standards.

While this issue may not be the result of any intentional action on your part, it poses a security risk to your visitors and to the overall integrity of the Wix network.

These types of issues are often introduced through third-party apps, custom code, or external content (such as embedded media, social media buttons, or tracking scripts) that may have been altered or compromised over time.

To resolve this issue and bring your site back into compliance, we recommend the following steps:

Initiate a live security review by replying to this message with the words "LIVE SUPPORT".

Our security team will work with you to identify the source of the unsafe redirection, audit your site's custom code and external integrations, and guide you through the remediation process.

Please note that your account remains in a critical security status until the issue is resolved.
If no action is taken within 72 hours, your Plan will be Deactivated and your site's unpublish and account may be subject to suspension or permanent deactivation in accordance with Our platform security policies. (offical URL with redirect: obviously removed for sake of sharing)

We are committed to supporting you through this process and ensuring your website remains safe, functional, and compliant.

Sincerely,
Wix Platform Security Team.
