What kind of page is ladsnow[.]com?
Our examination of ladsnow[.]com has revealed that the purpose of this web page is to deliver shady notifications. However, it cannot send them without user permission. To obtain this permission, ladsnow[.]com utilizes clickbait (a deceptive method). Users should not trust ladsnow[.]com and avoid opening it.
Ladsnow[.]com in detail
Ladsnow[.]com presents an image of robots and instructs visitors to click "Allow" to confirm that they are not robots. Trustworthy web pages do not require visitors to click "Allow" to pass a CAPTCHA, access their content, or perform other actions. Clicking that option grants web pages permission to show notifications (if they ask for one).
If allowed, ladsnow[.]com can send misleading notifications (e.g., fake system, antivirus warnings or offers). Interacting with notifications from ladsnow[.]com can lead to phishing sites designed to trcik visitors into disclosing personal information (e.g., credit card detail or login credentials).
Also, these notifications can open web pages hosting fake lotteries, giveaways, technical support scams, dubious (and even malicious) files and programs, and similar content. On these sites, users may be tricked into transferring money to scammers (e.g., paying for fake services), downloading harmful software, and more.
Therefore, it is strongly recommended not to visit ladsnow[.]com and never permit it to send notifications. The same applies to all web pages of this type. If a shady website sends notifications to a device, permissions granted to it should be revoked to avoid security and privacy risks.
