The full URL of the malicious URL including personal information was submitted with this report in case it is all required in order to trigger the Chrome security issue.

However can I ask that the personal information is removed from the URL if the report is going to be exposed beyond the initial group of users with Security Team permission.

Also I would be grateful if you are able to establish what information the malicious URL is able to extract from Chrome - i.e. could it have read my passwords that Chrome stores for me?

Just noticed an error in my original report.  It should read Chrome Version 57.0.2987.110 (64-bit) NOT Skype Version...

From Google's internal network the target URL simply redirects to http://aio-sim.ru/, which picks one of five different advertisements to show. No malicious behavior was seen.

Many thanks for investigating that for me.  
As mentioned clicking link did originally clear my Chrome browser history and also reset my Home page to a page with ads (probably the same one you found but I since restored my VM from prior to that event so can't say for sure).
Anyway thank you again for looking into this.

I also tried, from other networks.  It was probably triggering a bad ad which is gone now.

If you see it again, grab a screenshot or otherwise record the origin of the page doing the harm.  Thanks for the report.
