My friend accidentally pressed a link on Facebook, which redirected her to a consumer website similar to Amazon. When she realized it was a possible phishing link, she turned off her internet, changed her Facebook password, and logged out on all her devices. She told me her 2FA is turned on, and she already ran her malware bytes and Avast on her Mac OS, but nothing was found. Should she still be worried?

Thank you

    If she didn’t type in her social security number or credit card info, and did not download and install anything, then she is fine.

    Just looking at a website does not give you a virus, like just looking at a penis does not give you an STI.
