What kind of page is dybdended[.]com?
Dybdended[.]com is the address of a rogue page discovered by our research team during a routine inspection of suspicious websites. This webpage promotes scams and pushes browser notification spam. Furthermore, it can redirect visitors to other (likely untrustworthy/harmful) sites.
Most users access pages like dybdended[.]com via redirects caused by websites that use rogue advertising networks.
Dybdended[.]com overview
The behavior of rogue sites (i.e., what they load/endorse) may vary based on the visitor's IP address/ geolocation. When we entered dybdended[.]com, it ran the "Your Windows 10 is infected with viruses" scam. This scheme aims to create the impression of legitimacy by mimicking Windows and McAfee related graphic imagery. It falsely claims that the visitor's operating system is infected with viruses and malware.
It must be stressed that no website can detect threats – hence, any that make such claims are scams. In most cases, deceptive content of this type promotes unreliable, harmful, and malicious applications – under the guise of legitimate security tools.
Additionally, the dybdended[.]com page requested us to allow it to deliver browser notifications. Rogue websites use them to run intrusive advertisement campaigns. The displayed notifications/ads endorse online scams, dubious/harmful software, and even malware.
In summary, through webpages like dybdended[.]com – users can experience system infections, severe privacy issues, financial losses, and identity theft.
