Browser notification spam in general

We have inspected thousands of rogue websites; realbeyondcook[.]com, topfieldnow[.]com, dispatchfeed[.]com, and reianter[.]com are just some of our latest finds.

These pages display browser notifications that promote deceptive/malicious content. It is noteworthy that while genuine products/services may be encountered through these advertisements – they are most likely endorsed by scammers who abuse their affiliate programs in order to acquire illegitimate commissions.

How did ritingsynther[.]com gain permission to deliver spam notifications?

Websites cannot deliver browser notifications without user consent. Therefore, you have likely visited ritingsynther[.]com and permitted the advert delivery by clicking "Allow", "Allow Notifications", or a similar option presented on this page.

How to prevent deceptive sites from delivering spam notifications?

If you access a questionable webpage – do not enable it to deliver browser notifications (i.e., do not click "Allow", "Allow Notifications", etc.). Instead, we advise denying notification requests (i.e., pressing "Block", "Block Notifications", etc.) or ignoring them in their entirety.

Should you keep experiencing continuous unprompted redirects to suspicious websites, it could be due to adware installed onto 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.
