A "new" Google feature that offers to "predict your future" is not what you think.

The feature, available , is called "Google Fortunetelling" and asks you to enter a question about your future into the search engine.

The website then offers you some example questions including, "Will humans ever stop fighting wars?"

After entering your question, the site takes you to a new page that says, "OF COURSE WE CAN'T PREDICT YOUR FUTURE!"

The spoof Google site, unaffiliated with the real tech giant, has gone viral on social media as it seeks to raise awareness about the ongoing refugee crisis.

"But 60 million refugees ask themselves every day if they have a future at all," the site reads.

"So we used a fake Google-site to get your attention because apparently you were interested in your own future. Please take a moment to think of their future.

"With this project we want to create awareness. We need structural solutions on political level for this growing European problem. Please feel free to donate your time, money or love and spread the word."
