How to stop froommixoria.com from displaying shady ads

Also Known As: Ads by froommixoria.com
Damage level: Medium

What kind of page is froommixoria[.]com?

Our analysis of froommixoria[.]com has uncovered that it is a deceptive website designed to deceive unsuspecting visitors into agreeing to receive notifications from the site. Notifications from websites like froommixoria[.]com are not reliable. Therefore, such pages should not be permitted to send them.

Froommixoria[.]com in detail

Froommixoria[.]com is designed to display a fake video player resembling a YouTube player. Also, this website shows a loading spinner and a message instructing visitors to click the "Allow" button to confirm that they are not robots (supposedly to pass a CAPTCHA). Froommixoria[.]com implies that a video will be played after clicking "Allow".

However, clicking this button (which appears in a pop-up window upon visiting froommixoria[.]com) permits the page to display notifications. During our examination, we discovered that notifications from froommixoria[.]com use urgent language and other elements to trick users into clicking them.

We found that froommixoria[.]com can deliver notifications urging users to renew their McAfee antivirus subscription (even if they have never paid for this subscription). It is important to note that McAfee is a legitimate software product, and its developer does not own froommixoria[.]com.

Interacting with notifications generated by froommixoria[.]com can lead to technical support scams, phishing web pages, sites hosting malicious programs, fake giveaways, and other unreliable websites. Thus, users may lose money, become victims of identity theft, get their computers infected, and encounter other issues.

Therefore, users should not trust notifications from froommixoria[.]com (and pages opened through them) or allow such sites to send notifications to avoid potential risks. If encountered, such pages should be closed.

How these pages are promoted?

Users can encounter sites like froommixoria[.]com via misleading ads and pop-ups on dubious web pages, links in deceptive emails or messages, or ads generated by adware (or other untrustworthy software). Moreover, visiting torrent sites, illegal movie streaming platforms, and similar websites utilizing rogue advertising networks can redirect to pages like froommixoria[.]com.

Examples of similar sites are realilitnow[.]club, news-vukihu[.]com, and transiouratwat[.]com.

How did froommixoria[.]com gain permission to deliver spam notifications?

Websites cannot display notifications without permission. When a page that wants to send notifications is visited, a browser displays a pop-up containing buttons allowing users to accept or decline notifications. Thus, froommixoria[.]com sends notifications because this page has been allowed to do so.

How to prevent deceptive sites from delivering spam notifications?

If a shady website asks you to click the "Allow" button to prove that you are not a robot, play a video, download a file, etc., do not click it. If you do not wish to receive notifications from a website (even a reliable one), choose "Block", "Block Notifications", or a similar option.

If you are receiving unwanted notifications, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate them.
