How to avoid receiving notifications from jonne.club
Written by Tomas Meskauskas on
What kind of page is jonne[.]club?
After examining the jonne[.]club website, we found that it is a deceptive page running the "McAfee - Your PC is infected with 5 viruses!" scam. Also, it wants to show notifications. We came across this site while analyzing illegal movie streaming pages, torrent sites, and other pages that use rogue advertising networks.
Jonne[.]club in detail
Jonne[.]club runs a fake system scan and "detects" five viruses. It claims that the operating system is infected with viruses and other malicious applications. It urges visitors to remove viruses and repair the damage immediately. The purpose of this site is to trick visitors into clicking the "Renew License" button in a displayed fake system warning message.
Clicking that button opens a legitimate McAfee website. Jonne[.]club is operated by affiliates who promote legitimate software (McAfee antivirus) to collect illegitimate commissions. They fraudulently promote software to trick users into purchasing subscriptions.
Another issue with jonne[.]club is that it can show notifications to promote other (or the same) scams, shady apps, or even malware. Thus, this and similar pages should never be allowed to show notifications when they ask permission for that.

Web pages of this type in general
As a rule, websites of this type display deceptive content. All of them want to show notifications. Typically, they get opened via other sites that use rogue advertising networks, shady advertisements, or adware-type applications installed on the operating system (or added to a web browser). Users do not visit them on purpose.
Examples of similar sites are jerenga[.]click, keepsafetycore[.]com, and highpotencysoftware[.]com.
How did jonne[.]club gain permission to deliver spam notifications?
Web pages show notifications when they have permission for that. Visitors agree to receive notifications from pages by clicking the "Allow" button while visiting them. Websites like jonne[.]club usually display deceptive content to trick visitors into clicking that button.
How to prevent deceptive sites from delivering spam notifications?
Click the "Block", "Block Notifications", or equivalent button every time a shady website asks for permission to show notifications or close that page. Never trust pages claiming that it is required to click the "Allow" button to prove that you are not a robot, download a file, confirm your age, etc.
If you are receiving unwanted notifications, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate them.
