What kind of page is arashpar[.]xyz?
Arashpar[.]xyz is a rogue webpage that we discovered while inspecting questionable websites. It is designed to promote browser notification spam and redirect users to different (likely unreliable/harmful) sites. Most visitors to arashpar[.]xyz and similar pages access them via redirects caused by websites that use rogue advertising networks.
Arashpar[.]xyz overview
The behavior of rogue webpages (i.e., what they host/endorse) may be dictated by the visitor's IP address (geolocation).
When we accessed the arashpar[.]xyz site, it falsely stated – "PREPARE TO DOWNLOAD!/ You need to enable browser notifications to start downloading.". This type of deception can be particularly successful when a redirect to arashpar[.]xyz is caused when a user intentionally clicks a "download" option from a site that actually offers downloadable content but is monetized via rogue advertising networks.
If tricked by arashpar[.]xyz – visitors will allow this page to display browser notifications. These advertisements typically promote online scams, unreliable/dangerous software, and even malware.
It is pertinent to mention that when we selected the "Allow" button on arashpar[.]xyz, it resulted in a redirect to the paymentsweb[.]org webpage.
In summary, via sites like arashpar[.]xyz – users may experience system infections, serious privacy issues, financial losses, and identity theft.

Browser notification spam in general
We have inspected thousands of rogue pages; getnomadtblog[.]com, itspeedg[.]com, and ibuhaughuss[.]com are just a few examples of our newest finds.
These websites deliver browser notifications (ads) endorsing deceptive/malicious content. Note that any legitimate products or services encountered through these advertisements – are most likely promoted by scammers abusing their affiliate programs with the goal of fraudulently obtaining commissions.
How did arashpar[.]xyz gain permission to deliver spam notifications?
Websites cannot deliver browser notifications without user permission. Therefore, you have likely entered the arashpar[.]xyz page and pressed "Allow", "Allow Notifications", or a similar option presented on it.
Keep in mind that rogue sites often employ deception (e.g., clickbait, fake CAPTCHA verification, etc.) to lure visitors into permitting the notification/ad delivery.
How to prevent deceptive sites from delivering spam notifications?
To avoid receiving unwanted and potentially harmful browser notifications – do not permit suspicious websites to display them (i.e., do not click "Allow", "Allow Notifications", etc.). Instead, ignore or deny notification delivery requests (i.e., select "Block", "Block Notifications", etc.).
Should your browser continuously force-open dubious sites unprompted, it could be due to the presence of 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.
