 * Getting this warning from WordFence for the first time. False positive?:
 * File appears to be malicious: wp-content/plugins/all-in-one-wp-migration/storage/
   5b7333a1de365/database.sql
    Type: File Issue Found August 14, 2018 4:13 pm Critical
 * DETAILS
    Filename: wp-content/plugins/all-in-one-wp-migration/storage/5b7333a1de365/
   database.sql File Type: Not a core, theme, or plugin file from wordpress.org.
   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 text we found in this file that matches a known
   malicious file is: eval($_POST[. The infection type is: A suspicious code known
   as eval_of_POST. This file was detected because you have enabled “Scan images,
   binary, and other files as if they were executable”, which treats non-PHP files
   as if they were PHP code. This option is more aggressive than the usual scans,
   and may cause false positives.

 * This is likely to be a false positive. The storage folder is used to collate 
   the backup file. There shouldn’t be files left in there as they are deleted once
   your backup completes. On rare occasions when the backup fails, there can be 
   content left in the folder. You can delete these files.
