A member posted a domain for sale aboutme(dot)ca and I thought it was a really good domain so out of curiosity I thought I would punch in aboutus(dot)ca and it forwarded a few times and completely locked up my chrome browser.
Nothing got me out, I could not click away and a voice came on saying that I am compromised I have been visiting porn sites etc. It gave a blue Microsoft warning that I need to call in to unlock my computer and the heavens will open up if I circumvent it.
A quick control alt delete and I was out of course but sure enough chrome could not even recover my tabs etc.
A sweet domain like aboutus(dot)ca used for such an evil purpose surprised me a bit and I wondered what the next step was and who to report it to.
Anyone that is an expert in this field and wants to go there do so at your own risk. I on purpose did not put a link to the website here so you have to manually punch it in.
If someone knows how to get around it and post a screenshot and what evil trick they are using please post in topic.
WARNING USE LINK AT OWN RISK AND ONLY IF YOU ARE SURE YOUR BROWSER IS PROTECTED
aboutus(dot).ca
It really does not damage anything and control alt delete gets you out if you get stuck.
PS. I am not in any way affiliated with any of the domains in this topic.
