Google Adds Deceptive URL Alerts To Chrome, Unsafe URL Report Add-on
#1
Quote:Google announced the addition of a new feature which warns users of sites that try to pose as recently visited pages and a Google Chrome extension designed to allow them to report suspicious sites to Google's Safe Browsing team.
 
Chrome 75 will now alert its users whenever deceptive websites attempt to trick them "by using a confusing URL. For example, it’s easy to confuse 'go0gle.com' with 'google.com'."
 
"In Chrome 75, we’re launching a new warning to direct users away from sites that have confusing URLs," says Chrome Product Manager Emily Schechter.
