This site urges visitors to remove "detected" viruses immediately and claims that a computer will remain damaged and vulnerable if visitors leave it.

Typically, sites like bikemolktwo[.]xyz claim that they have detected viruses to lure visitors into buying paid antivirus software (paying for software subscriptions).
