What kind of page is myhypeposts.com?
Myhypeposts[.]com is a deceptive website designed to trick visitors into enabling its browser notifications. Additionally, it can redirect users to other dubious and malicious sites. Most visits to myhypeposts.com occur through webpages using rogue advertising networks.
Myhypeposts.com overview
How sites like myhypeposts.com operate (what content they display/promote) is determined by their visitors' IP addresses/ geolocations.
The webpage in question attempts to lure users into clicking the "Allow" button by claiming that this will enable them to continue watching online content. Visitors will allow myhypeposts.com to display notifications if tricked into doing so.
These notifications/advertisements endorse various untrustworthy/harmful websites, applications, and scams. Any promotion of legitimate sites/products through such ads is due to affiliate programs rather than genuine developers.

Browser notification spam in general
There are thousands of rogue webpages on the Internet; payments4u.org, mydesktopdefence.com, goodcaptchastyle.top, and security-scanner.xyz are just some examples.
It is noteworthy that the notifications pushed by such sites are commonly used in affiliate programs. The scammers (affiliates in question) promote legitimate content to obtain illegitimate commissions.
How did myhypeposts.com gain permission to deliver spam notifications?
Websites like myhypeposts.com usually employ deceptive messages that instruct visitors to enable the display of browser notifications. In other words, users are tricked into pressing "Allow", "Allow Notifications", or other consent options. The deception is necessary since sites cannot deliver notifications without user permission.
How to prevent deceptive sites from delivering spam notifications?
It is crucial to exercise caution when browsing to avoid unwanted and malicious content available on the Web. Untrustworthy websites that request the enablement of browser notifications should not receive permission to do so (i.e., the "Allow", "Allow Notifications", etc. - options must not be clicked). Instead, these requests have to be ignored or denied (i.e., "Block", "Block Notifications", etc.).
It is noteworthy that if a browser is force-opening rogue/malicious pages, it is likely due to the presence of adware on the system. If your computer is already infected with rogue applications, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate them.
