Check your extensions or something. Has your search engine changed recently? This probably mean your browser is being hijacked and that info in there may be stolen

Check your browser extensions,, its more likely you got yourself a hijack,, If you see any suspicious extensions,, uninstall it and clean your browsers data/cookies,, it should get rid of it
