Browser notification spam in general

Moadworld[.]com, biadstech[.]com, and endsco[.]com are merely a couple of our newest articles on rogue webpages. These sites may appear legitimate and use convincing lures to deceive visitors into allowing browser notification delivery. Ads of this kind primarily promote deceptive and malicious content.

While genuine products and services may be encountered via spam notifications – they are unlikely to be endorsed in this manner by any official parties. It is most probable that this endorsement is performed by scammers who are motivated to obtain illegitimate commissions by abusing the promoted content's affiliate programs.

How did n2major[.]com gain permission to deliver spam notifications?

You have likely visited n2major[.]com and permitted the advertisement delivery by selecting "Allow", "Allow Notifications", or an analogous option. It must be emphasized that no website can display browser notifications without user consent.

How to prevent deceptive sites from delivering spam notifications?

We strongly advise being selective when permitting sites to deliver browser notifications. Questionable webpages must not be enabled to do so; instead, these requests have to be ignored or denied (i.e., by clicking "Block, "Block Notifications", etc.).

It is worth mentioning that having adware installed on a browser or system may result in continuous, unprompted redirects to suspicious websites. If your computer is already infected with rogue applications, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate them.
