Browser notification spam in general
We have analyzed countless rogue pages; nonprilor[.]com, celeb-spicy-news[.]top, buzzthem[.]buzz, and phoaksux[.]com are merely some examples. Websites of this kind deliver browser notifications promoting deceptive/malicious material.
While genuine products or services may be encountered via these ads – they are unlikely to be endorsed by their actual developers. It is most probable that this endorsement is performed by scammers motivated to acquire illegitimate commissions by abusing the promoted content's affiliate programs.
How did ragnoocie[.]com gain permission to deliver spam notifications?
Websites need user consent to display browser notifications. Hence, you have likely accessed ragnoocie[.]com and pressed "Allow", "Allow Notifications", or a similar option – thus enabling this advertisement delivery.
How to prevent deceptive sites from delivering spam notifications?
To avoid receiving undesirable browser notifications – do not permit suspect webpages to deliver them (i.e., do not click "Allow", "Allow Notifications", etc.). We advise ignoring or denying notification requests from such pages (i.e., clicking "Block", "Block Notifications", etc.).
Should your browser continuously force-open questionable sites without prompt, it could be caused by adware installed on the device. If your computer is already infected with rogue applications, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate them.
