Browser notification spam in general

We have written about numerous rogue pages; pbmsoultions[.]com, kilitrek[.]top, and verifiedbreaking[.]com are but a couple of our newest articles. The purpose of these sites is to trick users into permitting browser notification delivery.

Spam notifications endorse deceptive and malicious content. While legitimate products/services may be encountered through these advertisements – they are unlikely to be promoted in this manner by any official parties. It is most probable that this promotion is undertaken by scammers who abuse the endorsed content's affiliate programs to acquire illegitimate commissions.

How did il0vemyc0untryandsteaks[.]com gain permission to deliver spam notifications?

User consent is necessary for any website to deliver browser notifications. Hence, if you are seeing these adverts from il0vemyc0untryandsteaks[.]com – it means that when this page was accessed, permission for their delivery was granted by selecting "Allow", "Allow Notifications", or a similar option.

How to prevent deceptive sites from delivering spam notifications?

It is important to always be selective when permitting webpages to deliver browser notifications. Questionable sites must not be allowed to display these advertisements; instead, their requests have to be ignored or denied (i.e., by pressing "Block", "Block Notifications", etc.).

In case of continuous random redirects to suspicious websites, check the browser and system for installed advertising-supported software (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.
