What kind of page is recusemartpreview[.]com?
Recusemartpreview[.]com is a rogue page discovered by our research team during a routine investigation of suspicious websites. Upon inspection, it became evident that this webpage promotes browser notification spam and redirects visitors to other (likely untrustworthy/hazardous) sites.
Most users enter pages like recusemartpreview[.]com through redirects generated by websites utilizing rogue advertising networks.
Recusemartpreview[.]com overview
It is pertinent to mention that the behavior of rogue sites (i.e., what they host/endorse) might differ depending on the visitor's IP address/ geolocation.
At the time of research, recusemartpreview[.]com displayed instructions for carrying out a fake CAPTCHA verification test – "Click 'Allow' if you are not a robot". The "Allow" option is, in fact, the consent option to the recusemartpreview[.]com page's browser notification delivery.
However, unlike most rogue websites utilizing bogus CAPTCHA tests for notification promotion, recusemartpreview[.]com included information regarding this advertisement delivery. It is likely due to policies or a policy change (e.g., by hosting services, etc.), as disclaimers of this sort are uncommon.
Rogue sites employ their notifications to run intrusive ad campaigns. The delivered adverts can endorse online scams, untrustworthy/harmful software, and even malware.
In summary, via webpages like recusemartpreview[.]com – users may experience system infections, severe privacy issues, financial losses, and identity theft.

Browser notification spam in general
We have examined thousands of rogue pages; udesmart[.]com, headirtlseivi[.]org, gouvevop[.]com, idesmasp[.]com, and iwheenaiga[.]com are merely some of our latest finds. These websites deliver browser notifications that promote all manner of deceptive and malicious content.
It is noteworthy that although legitimate products or services can be encountered through these ads – they are unlikely to be endorsed by their actual developers or other official parties. It is most probable that this endorsement is undertaken by scammers who abuse the content's affiliate programs to acquire illegitimate commissions.
How did recusemartpreview[.]com gain permission to deliver spam notifications?
Websites need user consent to deliver browser notifications. Therefore, if you are seeing these advertisements from recusemartpreview[.]com – it means that when this webpage was visited, consent for their delivery was granted by selecting "Allow", "Allow Notifications", or a similar option.
How to prevent deceptive sites from delivering spam notifications?
To avoid receiving undesirable browser notifications – it is essential to be selective about which webpages are enabled to display browser notifications.
Dubious sites must not be permitted to deliver these ads (i.e., do not click "Allow", "Allow Notifications", etc.). Instead, ignore or deny notification requests from such sites (i.e., press "Block", "Block Notifications", etc.).
Should you keep experiencing continuous unprompted redirects to questionable 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.
