RE: Would Google Chrome show a full page demand to upgrade now?

Posted by tunenut on January 10, 2017 at 21:38:37:
So I found a site that describes what you probably saw. I would not blame this on chrome or on your computer, it is an advertisement, but a deceptive one that is trying to get a naive user to install almost certain malware. I don't use chrome much, I use Firefox and with the noscript add on, all these scripts are unable to run. But there will always be scammers trying to trap users. Just today I opened an email from FedEx only to realize it was another scammer. Clicking on an attachment to this kind of email can kill you. It just takes one mistake.
