Gamadsnews[.]com in detail

Gamadsnews[.]com uses clickbait to obtain permission to show notifications. It displays an image of robots with a message claiming that clicking "Allow" is required to prove that users are not robots (to pass a CAPTCHA). Once this permission is granted, gamadsnews[.]com starts delivering notifications.

These notifications can contain fake system warnings, virus alerts, investment offers, and other messages. Interacting with them can lead users to deceptive websites. For instance, users may land on phishing pages mimicking legitimate sites and requesting to provide sensitive information (e.g., login credentials or credit card details).

Also, notifications shown by gamadsnews[.]com may open sites hosting technical support scams where users would be asked to pay for fake services or products, download potentially malicious software, provide personal information, or take other actions. Moreover, these notifications may direct users to fake giveaways, lotteries, and other fraudulent schemes.

Overall, it is strongly advisable not to permit gamadsnews[.]com to send notifications to avoid issues like monetary loss, identity theft, and other risks related to security and privacy. If gamadsnews[.]com already has permission to show notifications, it should be revoked as soon as possible.
