Newcaptchahere[.]top overview

It must be mentioned that the content encountered on and through rogue pages may vary depending on the visitor's IP address (geolocation). While inspecting newcaptchahere[.]top, we found two appearance variants. Both used fake CAPTCHA verification tests, which attempt to trick visitors into clicking the "Allow" button to prove that they are not a robot.

If deceived into completing the bogus test, users will inadvertently enable newcaptchahere[.]top to deliver browser notifications. Webpages of this kind use their notifications to run intrusive ad campaigns. The displayed advertisements endorse online scams, untrustworthy/harmful software, and even malware.

Browser notification spam in general

We have analyzed countless rogue sites; webuddingroup[.]comtheoverheat[.]comgetoverenergy[.]com, and colamecola[.]biz are merely some examples.

These webpages deliver browser notifications that promote deceptive/malicious content. Keep in mind that while genuine products/services can be encountered through these adverts – they are unlikely to be endorsed in this manner by their developers. It is most probable that this promotion is undertaken by scammers who abuse the content's affiliate programs in order to acquire illegitimate commissions.

How did newcaptchahere[.]top gain permission to deliver spam notifications?

Websites need user consent to deliver browser notifications. Therefore, you've likely visited newcaptchahere[.]top and clicked "Allow", "Allow Notifications", or a similar option presented on this page – thus enabling it to display these advertisements.

How to prevent deceptive sites from delivering spam notifications?

To avoid receiving unwanted browser notifications – do not permit suspicious sites to deliver them (i.e., do not select "Allow", "Allow Notifications", etc.). Instead, we recommend denying notification requests (i.e., pressing "Block", "Block Notifications", etc.) or ignoring them altogether.

Should you keep experiencing continuous unprompted redirects to questionable websites – it could be due to 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.
