Browser notification spam in general

We have analyzed thousands of rogue sites; foundedscan[.]com, authenticinspect[.]com, and fasterantiviruspc[.]com are merely a few examples.

These webpages deliver browser notifications that endorse deceptive/malicious content. Note that any genuine products encountered through these advertisements are highly unlikely to be promoted by their developers. Instead, the endorsement is undertaken by scammers abusing the content's affiliate programs in order to acquire illegitimate commissions.

How did therecode247[.]com gain permission to deliver spam notifications?

Websites can only display browser notifications with user consent. Permission for the ad delivery is given by clicking "Allow", "Allow Notifications", or a similar option presented on webpages. Therefore, you have likely visited therecode247[.]com and enabled it to deliver browser notifications by selecting such an option.

How to prevent deceptive sites from delivering spam notifications?

To avoid receiving undesirable browser notifications – do not enable suspicious sites to deliver them (i.e., do not press "Allow", "Allow Notifications", etc.). We recommend ignoring or denying notification requests from such websites (i.e., clicking "Block", "Block Notifications", etc.).

Should you experience continuous unprompted redirects to questionable webpages, it could be caused by adware installed on the browser or 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.
