Fake Google Chrome OS Download

Fake Google Chrome OS Download

Okay people, calm down…it’s fake. I repeat, there is no Chrome OS download available today.

An official-looking page offered the opportunity to download the public beta as a VMWare appliance—but it turns out that the download was a fake. The site, hosted on Google’s Web-hosting service, has since been shut down.

Re: Fake Google Chrome OS Download

What is the point of posting a fake OS download? Did they include any form of spyware?
