Be aware when using Google search "especially for the zombies who clicks the first result when searching," I searched for "Bitcoin wallet" and pressed the first result. www.cken.site/Blockchain/info‎ which leads to a page similar to blockchain.info wallet. Try it yourself

Refresh the page if you do not see images

Thanks for the heads up. There is absolutely no doubt that this site was created for the sole purpose of luring people into clicking into what they think is the legitimate blockchain.info wallet, but in reality, is really an imposter that is trying to get your money.

You should never click the google ads when you are searching up crypto related companies, including wallets, as a rule.

Most of the ones that actually do advertise with google are impersonators. The best thing to do is either click on the actual top result(not from ads), or just save the sites you frequent using a bookmark instead.

Do this sites randomly shows on each user or surfer?

If I understand it correctly, it is a paid advertisement. Google usually puts their paid ads on top of the regular organic search results. The problem is that often these ads are not really checked, not by a real person anyways. Even if a real person did check it, I doubt they could have the expertise to assess Bitcoin related content.

And the way these ads are displayed depends on a number of factors: keywords, language, country, previous search history, etc. Probably that's why sometimes they show and sometimes don't.

Indeed a phishing site and if you are a complete noob just fully relying on google search then you would end up on being victimized with this one.

Further on,when i test out i didnt see such similar thing on my browser,instead it shows this one.
