Nike-usa.net Scam: Fake Nike Store or Malicious Website?

Nike-USA located at nike-usa.net is not a Nike store, it is instead, a malicious website claiming they are giving pairs of sneakers totally free to fight against COVID-19 that is spreading around the world. But, the malicious website takes visitors to the Chrome Web Store and other websites and attempts to trick them into installing unwanted or malicious apps or extensions. Therefore, online users who have already been tricked into installing apps by the malicious website are asked to remove or uninstall them.
