Undowinowing[.]com in detail

Our analysis of undowinowing[.]com has revealed that the site displays a message saying to click "Allow" to confirm that you are not a robot. It presents this message on a black background, suggesting that its content will be loaded upon clicking "Allow" (supposedly after completing a CAPTCHA).

Clicking the "Allow" option (which is presented by a browser) when visiting undowinowing[.]com grants the page permission to show notifications. When websites like undowinowing[.]com have permission to display notifications, they usually bombard users with fake offers, warnings, alerts, and other fraudulent content.

We discovered that undowinowing[.]com can send notifications containing fake virus warnings claiming that a computer may be at risk (have viruses) and urging to scan the operating system by clicking the provided button. Interacting with notifications from undowinowing[.]com lead users to a variety of potentially malicious websites.

These may include web pages hosting malware, technical support scams, phishing schemes, fake lotteries, etc. On these pages, users may be lured into transferring money to scammers (e.g., paying for fake products or services). Also, users may be deceived into disclosing passwords, credit card details, or other personal information or executing malware on their computers.

Therefore, it is important to be cautious when encountering web pages like undowinowing[.]com and never permit them to show notifications.
