Browser notification spam in general

Wholefreshstories[.]com, woaisn[.]com, webkadsusa[.]com, unfreeads[.]com, and allemit[.]org are merely a few of our newest articles on rogue webpages. These sites aim to trick visitors into enabling their browser notification delivery. This purpose is typically achieved by relying on various lures, such as clickbait, fake CAPTCHA tests, adult-oriented content, and so on.

Spam notifications promote deceptive and malicious material. It is noteworthy that any genuine products or services encountered via these ads are most likely endorsed by scammers abusing their affiliate programs to acquire illegitimate commissions.

How did forenteion[.]com gain permission to deliver spam notifications?

Websites need user permission to deliver browser notifications. Therefore, if you are receiving these advertisements from forenteion[.]com – it is evident that their delivery was permitted (i.e., by clicking "Allow", "Allow Notifications", etc.) when the page was visited.

How to prevent deceptive sites from delivering spam notifications?

To avoid receiving undesirable browser notifications – do not enable suspect pages to deliver them. In other words, do not click "Allow", "Allow Notifications", or any analogous options presented on such websites. Instead, ignore or deny their notification requests – i.e., click "Block", "Block Notifications", etc.

In case of continuous random redirects to questionable sites, check the browser and system for installed adware. If your computer is already infected with rogue applications, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate them.
