NEW YORK – If you’re curious about Lily Collins and head to the Internet to find out, beware — McAfee has ranked the actress as the most dangerous celeb to search for online.
Collins — who starred in movies such as the Montreal-shot Mirror, Mirror and Toronto-made The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones — posed the biggest risk of landing on a malicious site, according the computer security company; last year Emma Watson topped the list.
Female celebrities were the overwhelming lure to malware; Canadian singer Avril Lavigne, Sandra Bullock, Kathy Griffin and Zoe Saldana rounded out the top five; Mad Men star Jon Hamm was the only man in the top 10.
A person could be led to malware after doing a general search and clicking on dubious links, but risks increased when searchers added phrases like “free apps” or “nude photos.”
