That is true, it has been an issue with Google, but not only Google. When Chipmixer domain has not been seized, I used even Duckduckgo for it and I saw the fake mixers too, but the difference was that Duckduckgo placed the original site as the first that I saw, while Google placed several fake Chipmixers before the original one. If you use other search engines too, the fake ones might appear.
They are getting paid for it and usually you will find lot of ads if you are not using the ad blocker on google filled with all those scam links to drain your funds.While using google based browser such as Chrome it becomes your responsibility to check for the correct links as there are many fake one popping up on your screen and they don't concern about your privacy.So best option is to use Tor browser keeping your privacy and directing towards correct links.
I prefer Brave browser, you don't need anything else if you have this browser, it comes with inbuilt ad blocker that blocks ads and trackers by default, it also has inbuilt script blocker, we all know how useful and script blocker can be for heavy internet users and it has access to the Tor Network easily, the second best on my list is Tor Browser.
At first I was also in favour of Brave browser but it only blocks ads but your connection is not secure and your privacy is open to them so for me it's not the best choice and instead of using TOR window through them you should directly use it by installing it on your system.It is best way to make private search with full safety while all other keep track of your records.The Brave browser gives you points and other services and say it's good for normal search and watch YouTube videos without any ads but not to make private search.
