Browser notification spam in general
We have investigated countless rogue websites; dwhitdoedsrag[.]org, colorattaches[.]com, and ademinetworkc[.]com are merely a couple of examples. The sites differ in appearance and use various lures to promote browser notifications. These adverts push deceptive and malicious material.
Note that while genuine products/services may be encountered via spam notifications – they are unlikely to be endorsed by any 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 girlzsportteam[.]top gain permission to deliver spam notifications?
Websites cannot display browser notifications without user consent. Hence, if you are receiving these ads from girlzsportteam[.]top – it means that you've likely entered this page and clicked "Allow", "Allow Notifications", or a similar option.
Keep in mind that rogue sites tend to use clickbait, fake CAPTCHA verification, adult-oriented bait, or other deceptive content to endorse browser notifications.
How to prevent deceptive sites from delivering spam notifications?
To avoid receiving unwanted browser notifications – do not permit dubious websites to deliver them (i.e., do not click "Allow", "Allow Notifications", etc.). We advise denying notification delivery from questionable pages (i.e., pressing "Block", "Block Notifications", etc.) or ignoring these requests altogether.
Should your browser continuously force-open suspicious sites unprompted, it could be due to adware installed on it or the 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.
