Drbaumann[.]info in detail

Drbaumann[.]info displays a fake video player resembling YouTube and a loading spinner. Also, once this site is visited, a pop-up from a browser with "Allow" and "Block" options is presented. The design of drbaumann[.]info is intended to make it look like its content (supposedly a video) will not be lanched/loaded until the "Allow" option is chosen.

If allowed, drbaumann[.]info may present notifications containing fake system warnings, virus alerts, fraudulent offers (e.g., discounts or investment opportunities), and other deceptive content.
