Browser notification spam in general

We have analyzed thousands of rogue webpages; tractsupport[.]com, wreddismorce[.]com, tpnwslndgm[.]com, and utationforh[.]buzz are merely a few examples of our latest finds.

These sites deliver browser notifications endorsing deceptive/malicious material. Note that any legitimate products/services encountered through these adverts are unlikely to be promoted by their developers. Instead, this promotion is undertaken by scammers abusing affiliate programs with the goal of obtaining illegitimate commissions.

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

Websites need user permission to deliver browser notifications. Hence, if you are seeing these ads from myshinyinc[.]com - it means that you have likely entered this webpage and selected "Allow", "Allow Notifications", or a similar option presented on it.

How to prevent deceptive sites from delivering spam notifications?

If you access a questionable webpage, do not consent to its browser notification delivery (i.e., do not press "Allow", "Allow Notifications", etc.). Instead, ignore or deny the notification requests (i.e., click "Block", "Block Notifications", etc.).

Should your browser continuously force-open suspect websites without prompt, it could be caused by the presence of advertising-supported software (adware). If your computer is already infected with rogue applications, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate them.
