Browser notification spam in general
We have inspected thousands of rogue webpages; onevenadvllc[.]com, addssupport[.]com, news-wemipo[.]cc, noutzing[.]com, liffswithabr[.]com – are merely some examples.
These sites display browser notifications that endorse online scams and malicious content. Keep in mind that while legitimate services and products can be encountered through these ads – they are unlikely to be promoted by their developers/creators. Instead, it is most probable that this endorsement is undertaken by scammers abusing the content's affiliate programs in order to acquire illegitimate commissions.
How did unlimdate[.]com gain permission to deliver spam notifications?
Websites can only deliver browser notifications with user consent. Therefore, you have likely entered unlimdate[.]com and clicked "Allow", "Allow Notifications", or a similar option – thus enabling the ad delivery.
How to prevent deceptive sites from delivering spam notifications?
To avoid receiving unwanted browser notifications, do not permit suspicious websites to display them (i.e., do not click "Allow", "Allow Notifications", etc.). We advise ignoring or denying notification delivery (i.e., pressing "Block", "Block Notifications", etc.).
Should your browser continuously force-open questionable sites unprompted, it could be caused by the presence of advertising-supported software (adware) on the device. If your computer is already infected with rogue applications, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate them.
