Google users are being warned to look out for a new email scam that could give scammers access to your bank account.
The latest attack uses Google branding and begins with a subject line that reads "Online Reward Program".
The message reads that you have just made the 18.25 billionth search. It reads: "Congratulations! You are the lucky Google user! Every 10 millionth search is reached worldwide, we will proclaim a lucky user to send out a thank-you gift. You are the lucky user!"

The link however takes you to a site where you can hand over your bank details to strangers.
Keeping users safe, according to Hull Live, Google warn: "Google does not offer spontaneous prizes in this format and you will not win a prize by completing the survey or entering your personal information."
To help its users, Google has also issued important Golden Rules which include:
Slow it down - Scams are often designed to create a sense of urgency. Take time to ask questions and think it through.
Spot check - Do your research to double-check the details you are getting. Does what they’re telling you make sense?
Stop! Don’t send - No reputable person or agency will ever demand payment or your personal information on the spot.
