Our research team discovered this page during a routine investigation of suspicious websites.

Pushyoumail[.]com overview
The behavior of rogue websites (i.e., what they load/promote) might be determined by visitors' IP addresses/ geolocations.
Once we accessed the pushyoumail[.]com page, it presented us with fake CAPTCHA verification - "Click 'Allow' if you are not a robot".

Browser notification spam in general
Cousonelly[.]com, steady-protection[.]com, and webdatasecuritycenter[.]com are merely a few examples of rogue websites that we have analyzed recently.
These pages display browser notifications that push online scams and malicious content. Note that any legitimate products encountered via these ads are highly 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 pushyoumail[.]com gain permission to deliver spam notifications?
Websites cannot deliver browser notifications without user permission. Hence, you have likely entered pushyoumail[.]com and pressed "Allow", "Allow Notifications", or a similar option presented on this page - thereby enabling the site to deliver these adverts.
It is pertinent to mention that rogue webpages often use deceptive content (e.g., clickbait, fake CAPTCHA, etc.) to entice users into allowing notification delivery.
How to prevent deceptive sites from delivering spam notifications?
To avoid receiving undesirable browser notifications, do not permit suspect sites to deliver them (i.e., do not press "Allow", "Allow Notifications", etc.). We advise ignoring or denying notification delivery (i.e., selecting "Block", "Block Notifications", etc.).
Should your browser continuously force-open dubious webpages unprompted, it could be caused by 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.

How to avoid browser notification spam?
Internet users should be very skeptical when being asked to allow notifications. While this is a useful feature that allows you to receive timely news from websites you like, deceptive marketers frequently abuse it.
Only allow notifications from websites that you fully trust. For added security - use an anti-malware application with a real-time web browsing monitor to block shady websites that tries to trick you into allowing spam notifications. We recommend using Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows.
