Timespace[.]top overview

The operation of rogue websites (i.e., what they load and/or endorse) may vary based on visitors' IP addresses/ geolocations.

When we investigated timespace[.]top, it presented us with fake CAPTCHA verification - "Press 'Allow' to verify, that you are not a robot". These instructions are intended to deceive visitors into allowing timespace[.]top to deliver browser notifications.

When we clicked the "Allow" button, it resulted in a redirect to a webpage running a scam similar to "Win A New iPhone 13", "AMAZON TRIAL", "Chrome Search Contest 2022", and countless others.

Rogue sites use their notifications to run intrusive advertisement campaigns. If allowed, they spam users with ads promoting various scams, untrustworthy/harmful software, and malware.

How to prevent deceptive sites from delivering spam notifications?

To avoid receiving undesirable browser notifications, do not permit suspect sites to deliver them.

Instead, ignore or deny notification delivery by pressing "Block", "Block Notifications", or a similar option.

Should your browser continuously force-open questionable 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.
