Renowned Computer security software company McAfee has revealed the results of its research that aimed to identify the top 10 popular celebrities who are being used for the riskiest search results online in India because of the malicious sites and viruses linked to pages when their names are searched.

Because of the Coronavirus pandemic, the online activity of people in India and in other countries across the world has seen a significant increase, as besides work-related searches, people also are heavily relying on the web for their entertainment.
So seeing the opportunity, hackers have also taken advantage of this trend on the basis of consumer behaviour to execute their scam strategies. Hence, people are advised to not go to any anonymous websites, click on an unknown link or download any media file sent by strangers, to protect their digital security.
