Currently, a search for "google cloud console" is returning a convincing-looking phishing site as its second sponsored link. I clicked on it, thinking it was the first main-engine search result (it was the bottom link above-the-fold).

It's a webpage hosted as a google site that looks convincingly like the google cloud marketing page. Clicking "Sign In" takes you to a look-alike Google sign-in page with an actual URL of https://accounts.gboogl.com/v3/signin/identifier?...

Be careful out there, folks.
