Ztzguv[.]com in detail
Ztzguv[.]com displays a fake CAPTCHA window and a pop-up window instructing visitors to click the "Allow" button to close that window. However, the underlying motive of ztzguv[.]com is to trick visitors into granting permission to display notifications, as the act of clicking the "Allow" button grants that specific permission.
It is important to note that ztzguv[.]com and similar deceptive websites can show notifications designed to lead users to various types of malicious or untrustworthy websites. These may include scam websites, fake software updates, adult content websites, or other harmful online destinations.
Moreover, ztzguv[.]com redirects users to other untrustworthy websites. One of these sites is click-videov[.]com - another website that uses clickbait (displays a fake video player) to trick visitors into allowing it to send notifications. Thus, neither ztzguv[.]com nor websites opened through it can be trusted.
