What kind of page is cidsbook[.]com?

Cidsbook[.]com (or cidsbook[.]club) is a website designed to trick visitors into agreeing to receive its notifications. To achieve this, cidsbook[.]com displays deceptive content. Also, may redirect users to other unreliable pages. Thus, users should avoid visiting cidsbook[.]com (or cidsbook[.]club).

cidsbook[.]com ads

Cidsbook[.]com in detail

On cidsbook[.]com (or cidsbook[.]club), users are instructed to pass a CAPTCHA (prove that they are not robots) by clicking "Allow" (an option provided by a browser while on the page). However, instead of passing a CAPTCHA, clicking "Allow" grants the site permission to display unwanted notifications.

Typically, sites that use clickbait to receive permission to show notifications deliver deceptive notifications. For example, cidsbook[.]com shows fake virus alerts (supposedly from Windows) claiming that five viruses have been detected on a computer and urging to perform a system scan. Cidsbook[.]club shows notifications regarding user privacy.

Interacting with these notifications can lead to unreliable web pages, including sites hosting technical support scams, various phishing schemes, fake lotteries, giveaways, and web pages enticing users to download potentially malicious software.

The websites opened through notifications from cidsbook[.]com and cidsbook[.]club can be designed to trick visitors into paying for fake or unnecessary services, downloading unwanted software or even malware, revealing sensitive information (e.g., credit card details or passwords), or taking other actions.

Therefore, web pages like cidsbook[.]com and cidsbook[.]club should not be permitted to show notifications. If such permission is already granted, it should be removed (instructions on how to remove unwanted permissions are provided below).

More about similar pages

It is uncommon for websites like cidsbook[.]com and cidsbook[.]club to be visited by users on purpose. Typically, users land on such sites via misleading ads, pop-ups, and web pages that use rogue advertising networks (e.g., illegal movie streaming pages and torrent sites).

Also, users might be tricked into visiting these pages via fraudulent emails or ads generated by adware. Some examples of web pages similar to cidsbook[.]com and cidsbook[.]club are rhoutsilisedic[.]com, theaddsllc[.]club, and allcottablog[.]com.

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

When you visit a site, such as cidsbook[.]com and cidsbook[.]club, your browser will typically present options like "Allow" or "Block". If you choose "Allow", you give the site permission to send you notifications. Websites cannot send notifications without this explicit permission.

How to prevent deceptive sites from delivering spam notifications?

When a website asks for permission to send you notifications, and you do not want to receive them, choose "Block" or a similar option. Trustworthy websites do not instruct visitors to click "Allow" to complete tasks like verifying a CAPTCHA, confirming your age, or watching a video.

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

How to avoid browser notification spam?

Internet users should be very skeptical when being asked to allow notifications. While this is a useful feature that allows you to receive timely news from websites you like, deceptive marketers frequently abuse it.

Only allow notifications from websites that you fully trust. For added security - use an anti-malware application with a real-time web browsing monitor to block shady websites that tries to trick you into allowing spam notifications. We recommend using Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows.
