If you haven’t turned it off, you might see messages like “The intended site contains malware: The site you begin visiting may try to install bad software, called malware, on your computer” or “Future deceptive site: The site you are trying to visit may be a phishing site.

If you see one of these messages, Google recommends that you do not visit the site.

Other messages include: “Suspicious site: The site you want to visit looks suspicious and may not be safe” and “The site you are waiting for contains malware: The site you start visiting may try to trick you into installing problematic software when you’re browsing online.”

Or even, “This page is trying to load scripts from unauthenticated sources: The site you are trying to visit is not secure”.

Google also urged Chrome users to download things with caution, according to The Sun.

Expensive usage licenses and off-brand apps create huge demand for illegal torrents, which makes it a great opportunity for hackers to spread shady scams.
