Fake Google Chrome Questionnaire - 2015 Annual Visitor Survey

If you are asked to complete the survey below: "2015 Annual Visitor Survey," please do not participate in it, because it is a trick to get online users to purchase products, services, complete questionnaires or surveys, by pretending to offer them rewards which are actual advertisements.

Contact your bank for help because the scammers will continuously charge your credit card. Your bank may need to cancel your current credit card and give you a new one.
