Avoiding Google ad attacks

Be very careful when you search for Monero web sites. You will occasionally see false advertisements appear in the search engine results which attempt to trick you into downloading software which will steal your cryptocurrency. The screenshots below show an attack we came across which was attempting to trick people into downloading a compromised Bitcoin wallet.

Please tell everyone you know that is using cryptocurrencies to watch out for these kind of scams.
