Browser notification spam in general

We have analyzed countless rogue pages; victorysweepstakes[.]com, shield-fordesktop[.]com, and win-scan[.]com are merely some examples.

These websites display browser notifications that endorse deceptive and malicious material. It is pertinent to mention that any legitimate products encountered through these ads are unlikely to be promoted by their developers. Instead, this promotion is undertaken by scammers abusing the products' affiliate programs to obtain illegitimate commissions.

How did hehighursoo[.]com gain permission to deliver spam notifications?

Sites require user consent to deliver browser notifications. Therefore, you have likely entered hehighursoo[.]com at some point and enabled it to display them by pressing "Allow", "Allow Notifications", or a similar option.

It is noteworthy that many rogue pages employ deception (e.g., clickbait, fake CAPTCHA verification, etc.) to trick visitors into allowing notification delivery.

How to prevent deceptive sites from delivering spam notifications?

To avoid receiving undesirable browser notifications, do not enable suspect websites to deliver them (i.e., do not select "Allow", "Allow Notifications", etc.). We recommend ignoring or denying notification delivery requests (i.e., clicking "Block", "Block Notifications", etc.).

Should your browser continuously force-open questionable sites without prompt, 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.
