Have you ever thought that if a user, who intentionally wants to infect your PC/phone with malware, will just add a different link inside the URL part and show you a different link here?
You mean, like this ? www.youtube.com
I put www.youtube.com but inside of it, is www.google.com.
Yeah, it really risky about that. Especially if you see that kind of post with some random members of the forum especially.

About this issue, if you are using mobile phones, you can also see the link once you long press the link and you will see the link you will visit, especially in Brave browser, google chrome browser (android). Not sure in any browsers or platforms on mobile.

Yeah, like that. Sometimes, a little bit of care can save your back from being stuck into a situation where you find yourself to be a victim because of your own silliness. We need to stay secure and for that, we should take care of these smallest issues which can do big loss to our finance as well as important data.
