Chernars[.]com in detail
Chernars[.]com presents a fake video player (which looks like YouTube) with a loading spinner and a message instructing visitors to click "Allow" to confirm that they are not robots. It also shows an arrow pointing to the "Allow" option in a pop-up displayed by a browser. Clicking this option permits chernars[.]com to send notifications.

These warnings urge users to click them to perform an antivirus scam.
Clicking these notifications can expose users to phishing sites, tech support scams, bogus lotteries, deceptive giveaways, websites promoting unwanted and potentially harmful software, etc. Users might be lured into revealking sensitive information such as passwords or credit card details.
They may also be misled into transferring money to scammers or installing malicious programs. In order to avoid falling victim to these threats, it is crucial to exercise caution with websites like chernars[.]com and deny them permission to send notifications. If a website of this kind already shows notifications, the permission to do so should be revoked immediately.
