Browser notification spam in general

We have examined countless rogue webpages; allcommonstories[.]com, aahdxn[.]com, easypcscan[.]com, uidhealth[.]com – are merely some examples.

These sites deliver browser notifications that push deceptive/malicious material. Keep in mind that any genuine content encountered through these ads is most likely endorsed by scammers who abuse its affiliate programs in order to acquire illegitimate commissions.

How did not-robot[.]top gain permission to deliver spam notifications?

Websites can only display browser notifications with user permission. Therefore, if you are receiving these adverts from not-robot[.]top – it means that you have likely accessed this page and permitted their delivery by selecting "Allow", "Allow Notifications", or a similar option.

How to prevent deceptive sites from delivering spam notifications?

To avoid receiving undesirable browser notifications – do not permit suspect websites to deliver them (i.e., do not click "Allow", "Allow Notifications", etc.). Instead, we advise ignoring or denying notification delivery requests from such sites (i.e., pressing "Block", "Block Notifications", etc.).

Should your browser continuously force-open dubious websites without prompt, it could be due to installed adware. If your computer is already infected with rogue applications, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate them.
