What kind of page is se29[.]biz?
While inspecting shady websites, we discovered the se29[.]biz rogue page. It operates by promoting browser notification spam and redirecting visitors to other (likely unreliable/malicious) sites. Most visitors to webpages of this kind enter them through websites that use rogue advertising networks.
Se29[.]biz overview
When we accessed se29[.]biz, it presented us with fake CAPTCHA verification. It is worth noting that the behavior of rogue webpages (i.e., what they host/endorse) might depend on the visitor's IP address/ geolocation.
The text presented on se29[.]biz (fraudulent CAPTCHA) - "Click Allow if you are not a robot" - is designed to trick visitors into enabling this page to display browser notifications. The delivered notifications/ads primarily promote online scams, untrustworthy/harmful websites and software, and even malware.
To summarize, through sites like se29[.]biz - users can experience system infections, severe privacy issues, financial losses, and identity theft.

Browser notification spam in general
Notfcompsystems[.]com, news-tulode[.]com, and notadszones[.]com are a few examples of the rogue pages we have analyzed recently.
The browser notifications delivered by such websites are used to endorse deceptive and malicious material. Any legitimate products encountered through these adverts are unlikely to be promoted by their developers. Instead, this endorsement is done by scammers who abuse the products' affiliate programs to obtain illegitimate commissions.
How did se29[.]biz gain permission to deliver spam notifications?
Websites cannot deliver browser notifications without user consent. Therefore, you have likely visited se29[.]biz and permitted it to display them. It is noteworthy that most rogue sites use fake CAPTCHA, clickbait, or other deceptive content to bait visitors into enabling notification delivery (i.e., by clicking "Allow", "Allow Notifications", etc.).
How to prevent deceptive sites from delivering spam notifications?
To avoid receiving undesirable browser notifications, we advise against pressing "Allow", "Allow Notifications", or similar options presented on suspicious websites. We recommend ignoring or denying notification delivery requests (i.e., clicking "Block", "Block Notifications", etc.).
Should your browser continuously force-open dubious sites unprompted, it might be 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.
