I only post this as an example; I DO NOT encourage others to click on the links to find out. Are these legit sites, or are they all scams?

It's scam, and it seems impossible to get rid of them, at least with Google, they don't give a F about it.

Anyway... Yeah. Don't go there.

EDIT: Ninja'd lol

Unfortunately, I accidentally clicked on one link; hopefully my account isn't getting mined for data now.

Nah, they just steal ad revenue afaik (and put a lot of other ads and fake download links and shit)

Doubtful that clinking the link will compromise your account but you can (and really should) change your password and set up 2-Factor if you are worried.
