Dhaka: In an innovative, yet hard-hitting way of telling people about the growing refugee crisis in Europe, Google has launched an awareness project by creating a fake site that tells people about their future, reported the IBNLive.

Dubbed Google Fortunetelling- Predict your future, the beta site first prompts you to type in a query about your future, as soon as you type in any random question, the result page tells you that because you were interested in knowing your own future, Google thought it was better to use this fake site to attract your attention.

Interestingly, the questions that prompt are not related to ‘how much will I earn in future,’ or whether ‘I’ll be buying that sports car,’ but include queries about things we, who perhaps have a roof on our heads and a stable job to help feed our family might overlook.

With questions like,‘Will I be ever reunited with my family, ‘Where can I find a safe place,’ and ‘Will humans ever stop fighting war,’ Google wants to create awareness about the 60 million refugees who are unsure of their futures and whether they will ever be accepted in the normal world sans discrimination.

Further links show the images and videos related to refugees from war-torn Syria and other conflict-ridden areas of Afghanistan, Yemen, Iraq, and Libya who have been migrating to Europe in search for a better life.
