Browser notification spam in general

Ondshub[.]com, nxt10[.]net, and nensinoo[.]top are just a couple of our latest articles on rogue pages. Their purpose is to trick users into consenting to their browser notification delivery, yet how they achieve this can differ significantly.

Spam notifications promote deceptive and malicious content. While legitimate products or services may be encountered via these adverts – 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 abuse the promoted content's affiliate programs to acquire illegitimate conditions.

How did pushckick[.]click gain permission to deliver spam notifications?

User permission is required for any website to deliver browser notifications, and pushckick[.]click is not an exception. Hence, you have likely accessed this site at some point, and permitted the ad delivery by clicking "Allow", "Allow Notifications", or a similar option.

How to prevent deceptive sites from delivering spam notifications?

Should you stumble upon a suspicious webpage – do not permit it to display browser notifications (i.e., do not click "Allow", "Allow Notifications", etc.). Instead, deny notification delivery from such pages (i.e., press "Block", "Block Notifications", etc.) or ignore these requests in their entirety.

In case of continuous unprompted redirects to dubious websites, inspect the browser and system for installed adware. If your computer is already infected with rogue applications, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate them.
