The way it sometimes works is that a game, for example, will ask people to hand over their mobile number in order to play. Then, nefarious people use that information to charge them money through their carrier, which the unsuspecting user doesn't even notice until their monthly phone bill arrives.

"We want to make sure Chrome users understand when they are going through a billing flow and trust that they'll be able to make informed decisions while browsing the web," Google said in a statement.
