I clicked on a link that I thought was legitimate and I received one of those pages that said Chrome was out of date and to it provided a big button to upload the new version. That was suspicious: Chrome doesn't do that any more. The screen looked like this:
I went to the three dots on the upper right that give access to the chrome settings. I went down to the Help selection at the bottom of the dropdown, and selected About Google Chrome. The resulting page said my chrome was up-to-date. So this was bogus.
Upon display of this page, a piece of code was downloaded and was ready to run. I went to downloads and deleted that piece of code.
The link invoked by the Update Chrome button led to stat.comcuvar.info This site "doesn't exist." I guess it is one of those "black sites." But the site appears to be in Serbia.
