My Chrome updates automatically each time I open the Chrome browser.

I think this is some sort of phishing.

No, chrome doesn't always automatically update depending on your settings.

Do your research, read the news, choose for yourself but this current exploit is serious. If you have an outdated version of chrome you are vulnerable. The current version is: 99.0.4844.84

My version of chrome is set to manually update, so I appreciated the heads-up, Janet!
