I just saw GoPlus Security issue a warning about a type of malware spreading through Google Ads. They are impersonating the Claude Code download page, looking exactly like the official one. I haven't paid attention to this kind of trick before.

The danger is that when you install this malware, it can lock everything - passwords, cookies, session tokens, even your crypto wallet. So you'll lose everything. And it can also extract all your system information.

GoPlus recommends being cautious when you see search results with the word "Advertisement." Double-check the URL before downloading anything, especially for large software like this. I find this method quite sophisticated; malware disguising itself like this is really easy to deceive people.
