How this may affect you, you ask?  One such possibility is the one described by OP.  Another possibility is you can be redirected to fake websites where you can input real information.  The information then goes in the wrong hands and you will ultimately become a victim.


It depends on what kind of malware being injected into our system and almost anything can be done remotely if an attacker can get you install an infected file and let's say the complete control of your device will be on the attacker side too which including, crypto wallets, personal files.

I don't really navigate to any website if it's coming from a shortened url, always just go and search the website by yourself and don't even trust the results shown by the google in the top.

   It is very good and safe when we remind ourselves of these important information because some of us forget or are hesty at times,and so we fall into these traps. You know, short links disregard your state of being away from public attention and  want to harm the security of your device and data, also make your group of people accessible to security risk or even banned contract . These short links are being used by spammers and cybercriminals in other to hide links from having a desired to cause harm to another websites,and they use  shortened URLfor phishing sites and setup downloads by directing the victims, some short links may stop functioning or have ended on spam blocklist.
