 * Greetings,
 * So I submitted a sitemap to Webmaster and then they gave me a ‘phishing warning’
   with these two specific urls:
 * /wp-admin/maint/arcc/verme.php
    /wp-admin/maint/gree/verme.php
 * Where can I find these two .php files, so that I can delete them?
 * These aren’t regular pages that I’ve created & they aren’t .php accessible from
   the WP editor.
 * Thanks

 * It’s possible that your site was hacked and when that happened, these files were
   added.
    What I would do is login into your site via FTP, delete the wp-admin 
   and then re-upload a fresh copy of the wp-admin folder and all the files in there.
