Unsealator[.]com in detail
Unsealator[.]com promotes free online games. Also, a browser informs visitors that unsealator[.]com wants to show notifications and provides "Allow" and "Block" (or equivalent) options. Choosing "Allow" permits unsealator[.]com to send notifications that, as we discovered, can be misleading and direct users to shady sites.
These notifications can state that a computer has been infected, sensitive information compromised, an antivirus or other subscription has expired, or a message from someone has arrived. By clicking on these alerts, users may be directed to websites designed to deceive them into downloading unnecessary or even harmful software.
Additionally, notifications from unsealator[.]com might lead to sites that attempt to steal personal information, such as login credentials, social security numbers, ID card details, or credit card information. Users may also be tricked into sending money to scammers (e.g., purchasing bogus products or services).

If unsealator[.]com has been allowed to send notifications, it is important to revoke this permission immediately to prevent exposure to scams, malware, and other security risks.
