The answer

There is no harm in dedicating the reward of guiding to good deeds to the deceased, such as guiding to a website containing Quranic recitation or a lesson, based on the opinion of those who permit dedicating the reward of physical acts of worship to the deceased. The mentioned threat is unfounded, as a person is not obligated to disseminate that information such that they would be questioned about it.
