Browser notification spam in general
We have written about numerous rogue sites; lottadslive[.]top, controlchek[.]site, nnoomm.co[.]in, and oppush[.]space are but a few of our latest articles.
These webpages aim to trick visitors into enabling browser notification delivery. Typically, they achieve this using various lures, such as fake CAPTCHA verification tests, adult-oriented content, clickbait, etc.
Spam notifications endorse deceptive and malicious content. While legitimate products or services may be encountered through these ads – they are unlikely to be promoted by their actual developers. It is most probable that this promotion is performed by scammers seeking to acquire illegitimate commissions by abusing the endorsed content's affiliate programs.
How did speednetworkdevice.co[.]in gain permission to deliver spam notifications?
User permission is necessary for any website to deliver browser notifications. Hence, you have likely visited speednetworkdevice.co[.]in and pressed "Allow", "Allow Notifications", or an analogous option – thereby consenting to the advertisement delivery.
How to prevent deceptive sites from delivering spam notifications?
Should you happen upon a suspicious page – do not enable it to deliver browser notifications (i.e., do not click "Allow", "Allow Notifications", etc.). Instead, deny notification delivery from such sites (i.e., select "Block", "Block Notifications", etc.) or ignore these requests altogether.
It is pertinent to mention that having adware installed on the browser or system may result in suspicious websites being force-opened at random. Should you keep experiencing redirects of this kind, inspect the device and immediately remove all dubious applications and browser extensions/plug-ins.
If your computer is already infected with rogue applications, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate them.
