We have analyzed the website and found that it runs the "You've Visited Illegal Infected Website" scam. It uses scare tactics to trick visitors into agreeing to receive notifications and paying for a security tool. Typically, when users agree to receive notifications from sites like ruopors.co[.]in, they receive misleading notifications. Thus, ruopors.co[.]in should not be trusted.
Ruopors.co[.]in in detail
Ruopors.co[.]in shows a fake security alert claiming that you have visited an illegal infected website and your computer is at risk of being infected by viruses. It instructs to perform an antivirus scan to continue browsing safely. We found that ruopors.co[.]in is designed to imitate a system scan that "detects" multiple threats on computers.
After the "scan, the site displays a fake warning claiming that the Windows operating system is infected with viruses and other malicious apps. The message displayed by ruopors.co[.]in urges visitors to remove the supposedly detected threats and claims that closing the site will leave a computer damaged and vulnerable.
Pretty often, sites like ruopors.co[.]in are created by affiliates who earn commissions when individuals pay for security (or other) tools, in this case, McAfee, through their websites.
