Browser notification spam in general

Artlottads[.]top, controlchek[.]site, and geeesx.co[.]in are just a couple of our latest articles on rogue websites. Pages of this kind display browser notifications promoting deceptive and malicious material. Remember that any genuine content encountered via these adverts is most likely endorsed by scammers who abuse its affiliate programs to obtain illegitimate commissions.

How did lcart[.]shop gain permission to deliver spam notifications?

Websites can only deliver browser notifications with user consent. Therefore, you have likely entered lcart[.]shop at some point and permitted the advertisement delivery by selecting "Allow", "Allow Notifications", or a similar option presented on this page.

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

How to prevent deceptive sites from delivering spam notifications?

It is important to always be selective when permitting sites to deliver browser notifications. Dubious webpages must not be enabled to display these ads; instead, such requests have to be ignored or denied (i.e., by clicking "Block", "Block Notifications", etc.).

Should your browser continuously force-open questionable websites, it could be due to adware installed on it or the system. If your computer is already infected with rogue applications, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate them.
