What kind of page is babesroulette[.]com?
Babesroulette[.]com is a rogue webpage designed to promote questionable content, push browser notification spam, and redirect visitors to other (likely untrustworthy/harmful) sites. Our research team discovered this page during a routine inspection of shady websites.
Visitors to babesroulette[.]com and similar websites typically enter them via redirects caused by pages that use rogue advertising networks.
Babesroulette[.]com overview
What users encounter on and through rogue pages can depend on their IP addresses/ geolocations. When we accessed babesroulette[.]com, it requested an age confirmation and permission to display browser notifications. The former stated - "Confirm age/ Are you at least 18 years old?" - with the only option available on the page being "Yes"; it is implied that by pressing the confirmation button - users will be permitted access to adult-oriented content.
Additionally, if users enable babesroulette[.]com to display browser notifications, the site will use them to run intrusive advertisement campaigns. The delivered notifications/ads usually endorse untrustworthy/harmful websites and software, online scams, and even malware.

Browser notification spam in general
We have analyzed thousands of rogue webpages; emicalcove[.]xyz, myhypestories[.]com, and captcha4greatpeaple[.]top are but a few examples.
The browser notifications displayed by such sites primarily endorse unreliable and malicious material. However, while legitimate content can be encountered through these ads, the actual creators/developers are highly unlikely to promote it in this manner. Typically, scammers abuse affiliate programs and employ notification spam to obtain illegitimate commissions.
How did babesroulette[.]com gain permission to deliver spam notifications?
Sites can only deliver browser notifications if users allow them to do so. Therefore, you have likely visited babesroulette[.]com and consented to its notifications.
How to prevent deceptive sites from delivering spam notifications?
To avoid receiving undesirable browser notifications, we advise against clicking "Allow", "Allow Notifications", or similar options presented by questionable sites. Instead, we recommend ignoring or denying notification delivery requests, i.e., pressing "Block", "Block Notifications", etc.
Should your browser continuously force-open random webpages, it is likely due to adware installed onto it or 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.
