Browser notification spam in general

We have inspected thousands of rogue webpages; jigisup[.]xyz, newzsystems[.]com, broworker1s[.]com, fynbest[.]com, entry-system[.]xyz are merely some examples.

These sites display browser notifications that endorse online scams and malicious content. It is noteworthy that any genuine products encountered via these advertisements are most likely promoted by scammers abusing their affiliate programs to obtain illegitimate commissions.

How did celeb-hot-treands[.]com gain permission to deliver spam notifications?

Websites cannot deliver browser notifications without user consent. Therefore, you have likely visited celeb-hot-treands[.]com and permitted it to display these advertisements (i.e., pressed "Allow", "Allow Notifications", etc.).

Many rogue webpages use deception (e.g., clickbait, fake CAPTCHA verification, etc.) to trick visitors into enabling notification delivery.

How to prevent deceptive sites from delivering spam notifications?

We advise against permitting suspicious sites to deliver browser notifications. In other words, do not click "Allow", "Allow Notifications", or similar options presented on such pages. Instead, ignore or deny notification delivery requests - i.e., press "Block", "Block Notifications", etc.

Should your browser continuously force-open questionable websites unprompted, it could be due to adware installed onto the device. If your computer is already infected with rogue applications, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate them.
