What kind of page is psistaugli[.]com?
Our research team discovered the psistaugli[.]com rogue page while investigating dubious sites. It operates by pushing browser notification spam and redirecting visitors to other (likely unreliable/harmful) websites. Most users access webpages like psistaugli[.]com via redirects caused by sites using rogue advertising networks.
Psistaugli[.]com overview
The content encountered on and through rogue websites may differ depending on visitors' IP addresses (geolocations).
When we entered the psistaugli[.]com page, it presented us with the following deceptive text – "Click the Allow button to subscribe to the push notifications and continue watching". The site implied that the visitor must enable its browser notification delivery to resume viewing online content.
Rogue webpages employ their notifications to run intrusive advertisement campaigns. The displayed ads predominantly promote online scams, untrustworthy/hazardous software, and even malware.
Therefore, via pages like psistaugli[.]com – users can experience system infections, severe privacy issues, financial losses, and identity theft.

Browser notification spam in general
Sweepstakessurveytoday[.]org, bonalluterser[.]com, abdoser[.]xyz, and tunnelbuilder[.]top are merely a couple examples of rogue sites we have inspected recently. Webpages of this kind display browser notifications that endorse deceptive and malicious content.
It must be stressed that while legitimate products and services may be encountered via these adverts – they are unlikely to be promoted by their developers or other official parties. It is most probable that this endorsement is undertaken by scammers who abuse the content's affiliate programs in order to obtain illegitimate commissions.
How did psistaugli[.]com gain permission to deliver spam notifications?
Since no website can display browser notifications (ads) without user permission – you have likely visited psistaugli[.]com and pressed "Allow", "Allow Notifications", or a similar option presented on this page.
It is noteworthy that rogue sites commonly use deception (e.g., clickbait, fake CAPTCHA verification, adult-oriented content, etc.) to trick visitors into enabling notifications.
How to prevent deceptive sites from delivering spam notifications?
If you access a questionable webpage – do not permit it to deliver browser notifications (i.e., do not click "Allow", "Allow Notifications", etc.). We advise denying notification delivery from such pages (i.e., pressing "Block", "Block Notifications", etc.) or ignoring these requests altogether.
Should you keep experiencing unprompted redirects to suspicious websites, it could be caused by 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.
