Report Websites Having Malware Content
You need to visit Google’s Report a Malware (Badware) page. Now enter/paste the website domain name URL (or any specific page) that you suspect contains malicious software content.

Maybe just tell them from where you got this link, via search results or any referral website and how you believe this site contains malware content. Just be candid and answer them for fixing this asap.
