Peritosusa[.]top in detail

Peritosusa[.]top presents an image of robots and pushes visitors to click "Allow" to confirm that they are not robots. In other words, peritosusa[.]top implies that clicking "Allow" is required to pass a CAPTCHA. In reality, this action permits the site to send notifications, and deceptive pages like peritosusa[.]top usually show fraudulent warnings, alerts, and other messages.

We discovered that peritosusa[.]top can send fake virus warnings from McAfee claiming that a computer has been infected with a Trojan. McAfee is a legitimate computer security software company that does not have control over peritosusa[.]top (or similar deceptive websites).

For instance, users may end up visiting websites hosting technical support scams, fake giveaways, phishing schemes, bogus lotteries, etc. Also, users may encounter sites designed to trick them into downloading malicious software. Thus, peritosusa[.]top should not be permitted to send notifications to avoid monetary loss, computer infections, identity theft, and other issues.
