Browser notification spam in general

Sabs-push[.]xyz can be used to promote other pages designed to trick visitors into allowing them to display notifications. It is important to mention that notifications coming from these pages can promote malicious applications. Sometimes, websites like sabs-push[.]xyz are promoted through adware.

How did sabs-push[.]xyz gain permission to deliver spam notifications?

Websites get permission to deliver notifications when users click the "Allow", "Allow Notifications", or similar button in a pop-up displayed by browsers. Usually, these pages use clickbait techniques to trick visitors into clicking that button (into agreeing to receive notifications).

How to prevent deceptive sites from delivering spam notifications?

Do not trust websites claiming that it is required to click the "Allow" button to continue loading their content, prove that you are not a robot, and so on. Legitimate websites never ask for permission to show notifications using deceptive methods. Click the "Allow" button only when you are sure that you wish to receive notifications from the visited page.

If your computer is already infected with rogue applications, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate them.
