Written by Tomas Meskauskas on
What kind of page is euprotection[.]click?
Our researchers found the euprotection[.]click rogue page while inspecting dubious websites. It is designed to promote scams and spam browser notifications. Furthermore, this webpage can redirect visitors to other (likely untrustworthy/hazardous) sites. Most users can enter such pages via redirects caused by websites using rogue advertising networks.
Euprotection[.]click overview
The behavior of rogue sites may depend on the visitor's IP address (geolocation). In other words, this information might determine the content encountered on and through such webpages.
When we investigated euprotection[.]click, it ran a variant of the "McAfee - Your Card Payment Has Failed!" scam. It falsely claims that the visitor's anti-virus subscription has expired and that the device is at risk. It must be emphasized that this scam is in no way associated with the actual McAfee. In most cases, content of this kind is used to promote fraudulent, unreliable, harmful, and even malicious applications.
Additionally, euprotection[.]click requested permission to deliver browser notifications. If allowed, the page will display notifications/ads that endorse online scams, untrustworthy/dangerous software, and even malware.
In summary, through websites like euprotection[.]click – users can experience system infections, serious privacy issues, financial losses, and identity theft.

Browser notification spam in general
We have analyzed thousands of rogue webpages; getcaptcha[.]top, reliablepcstrength[.]com, prowimoniser[.]com, and lntriguingdate[.]com are merely some examples.
These sites display browser notifications promoting deceptive/harmful material. Keep in mind that while genuine products and services can be encountered through these adverts – they are unlikely to be endorsed in this manner by their developers. Instead, this endorsement is typically undertaken by scammers who abuse the content's affiliate programs to obtain illegitimate commissions.
How did euprotection[.]click gain permission to deliver spam notifications?
Websites need user permission to deliver browser notifications. Therefore, if you are receiving these advertisements from euprotection[.]click – it means that you have likely accessed this page at some point and permitted their delivery by clicking "Allow", "Allow Notifications", or a similar option.
How to prevent deceptive sites from delivering spam notifications?
If you access a suspicious website – do not enable it to display browser notifications (i.e., do not click "Allow", "Allow Notifications", etc.). We advise ignoring or denying notification requests from such pages (i.e., pressing "Block", "Block Notifications", etc.).
Should your browser continuously force-open dubious sites unprompted, it could be caused by adware installed on it or the 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.
