Google launches website to help users avoid covid-19 online security scams

Google rolled out a new website on Wednesday, focused on covid-19 related security risks.

With the rise in online scams related to covid‑19, the site aims to inform users about online risks and scams such as phishing emails posing as messages from charities and NGOs battling covid-19, directions from administrators to employees working from home, and even notices spoofing healthcare providers.

The website is currently available in Hindi and English, and the content will soon be rolled out in other regional languages.
