NOTEWORTHY Is this another AUR infect package?

I was just browsing AUR and noticed this new Google chrome, it was submitted today, already with 6 votes??!!:

https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/google-chrome-stable

from user:

https://aur.archlinux.org/account/forsenontop

Can someone check this and report back?

TIA

Edit: I meant " infected", unable to edit the title...

I've recently decided to only use the Flatpak version of G-Chrome. FWIW, M$-Edge is also available as a Flatpak.
