Experts warn searching for naked Sydney Sweeney photos will ruin your device

Experts have sent an urgent warning out to social media users about searching for 'leaked pictures' of Sydney Sweeney.

Sweeney is one of the biggest names in Hollywood right now, following her roles in Euphoria, Anyone But You and The White Lotus.

The 26-year-old also recently hosted Saturday Night Live, delivering a hilarious opening monologue.

She also recently went out of her way to debunk the claim that a certain woman was her dietician.

However, it looks like her name is back in the news, but for all the wrong reasons this time.

It's all to do with some easily excited social media users, as reported by 404 Media, 'Sydney Sweeney leak' became a trending topic on X, formerly Twitter.

Following the SNL episode where she was host, with some (creeps) obsessing over her breasts.

Almost a week on, it it still one of the top searches if you look the actress up on the site.

But, who could have guessed, it's all a scam.

Searching for her name will give you results of people posting links that send you to 'leaked' pictures of the Anyone But You star.

There are no real leaked photos or videos of Sydney Sweeney online though.

It turns out that all the links lead to malware, so if you are one of those people who clicked on the Sydney Sweeney breast links, Linktree sites there will get you to download malicious and harmful software onto your device through sites like thaudray.com and waufooke.com

Clicking on these links - which you should avoid - will only leave you with viruses and a headache, instead of what you were expecting in the first place.

Hopefully you'll have an antivirus software that will warn you ahead of time of the impending danger but if you don't have that, it's really game over.

There has been an increase in scam ads and porn bots on X, formerly Twitter, in recent times, in addition to these AI images of female celebrities that will lure horny users into being infected with malware.

It's why experts have urged users to be more vigilant when scrolling through apps.

The security experts at malwaretips have sent out a warning to social media users, saying: "Your browser may be redirected to waufooke.com due to malware infection on your device, push notifications from malicious sites, or by being redirected from another website you visited.

"Less reputable sites may display malicious ads that redirect your browser to Waufooke.com in order to generate advertising revenue."

They recommend that you close the page and install an ad blocker to avoid these situations in future, as if you keep seeing these sites, your computer has already been infected.

In this situation, you should scan your device and remove the harmful virus.
