FAKE ‘URGENT GOOGLE CHROME UPDATE’

smoldeputy:

I don’t know if this has made it’s way on tumblr yet, but after searching something on here, I went back to my dashboard and a site like this was redirected to me:

Do NOT, under any circumstance, OPEN THE FILE WHEN IT WAS DOWNLOADED!

The website itself in the URL bar looks fishy enough as it is, I was lucky enough to delete the file and then check the internet to see of this was real, and multiple sites can confirm this is a virus!!!

Do NOT OPEN IT PLEASE, IT IS A VIRUS!!!

Instead, go to your downloads folder and delete it!!!! Then, until this has cleared up, PLEASE go to your Google Chrome settings, go to advanced settings, and check  “Ask Where to Save Each File Before Downloading” so that this doesn’t happen again!!!

Please, please, PLEASE signal boost so no one gets a yucky virus on their computer!!!!
