Browser notification spam in general

Oppush[.]space, activesafe[.]site, networkcorechain.co[.]in, news-xgomuvo[.]live, and taffetlervers[.]com are just some of our newest articles on rogue webpages. These sites deliver browser notifications that promote deceptive and malicious material.

Remember that while legitimate products or services may be encountered via these advertisements – they are unlikely to be endorsed by any official parties. It is most probable that this endorsement is performed by scammers motivated to acquire illegitimate commissions by abusing the promoted content's affiliate programs.

How did hijnis[.]sbs gain permission to deliver spam notifications?

Websites cannot display browser notifications without user consent. Hence, if you are receiving these adverts from hijnis[.]sbs – it means that when this page was visited, permission for their delivery was given by clicking "Allow", "Allow Notifications", or a similar option.

It is worth mentioning that rogue sites often use various lures (e.g., fake CAPTCHA verification tests, adult-oriented content, clickbait, etc.) to deceive visitors into enabling notifications.

How to prevent deceptive sites from delivering spam notifications?

Should you stumble upon a dubious page – do not enable it to display browser notifications. In other words, do not click "Allow", "Allow Notifications", or any analogous options presented on such sites. Instead, deny their notification delivery (i.e., press "Block", "Block Notifications", etc.) or ignore these requests altogether.

In case of continuous random redirects to suspicious websites, check the device 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.
