We discovered this deceptive page while examining sites that use rogue advertising networks (open shady pages and show dubious ads).
Adslivetraining[.]com in detail
Adslivetraining[.]com instructs visitors to pass a fake CAPTCHA by clicking the "Allow" button. It displays a deceptive message claiming that it is required to click that button to prove that visitors are not robots. There is another variant of adslivetraining[.]com that displays a virtually identical message.
Notifications delivered by adslivetraining[.]com offer to secure and clean devices, remove ads, etc. They promote questionable pages and applications. Those notifications can open phishing pages, technical support scam pages, websites offering to download potentially malicious apps, etc. Thus, adslivetraining[.]com and its notifications cannot be trusted.
We also found that adslivetraining[.]com can redirect to gomusic[.]info - another virtually identical website.
