Latest malware scam attempts to uninstall and replace your Chrome browser

We’ve become accustomed to malware that invades our browsers — showing us ads we don’t want to see and collecting our information without any warning — but there’s a new scam worth watching out for.

Last Thursday, PCrisk was one of the first sites to warn users about the eFast browser, a malware browser that seeks to replace a user’s Chrome browser entirely.

Although the browser looks relatively innocuous at a glance, it has been classified as adware and will pack your Internet browsing experience with unwanted ads while tracking and reporting everything you do to advertisers.
