What kind of page is anglow[.]xyz?

We have examined anglow[.]xyz and determined that its goal is to trick users into taking certain actions and promote other untrustworthy websites via notifications. This site employs a clickbait tactic to gain permission to send notifications. Users should exercise caution when encountering sites like anglow[.]xyz and avoid accepting their notifications.

Anglow[.]xyz in detail

Anglow[.]xyz runs a scam similar to "You've visited illegal infected website". At first, it shows a fake warning stating that Windows 10 is infected with viruses and other malicious applications and urging users to remove these viruses and repair system damage.

This warning also says that it is necessary to run the run virus removal procedure immediatelly and that exiting the site will leave a computer damaged and vulnerable. It provides the "Renew License" option which, if clicked, leads to another fake message. The second deceptive warning is disguised as a security alert from Norton.

This alert claims that the user has visited an illegal and infected website, and their computer is at risk of being infected with viruses. It urges the user to run an antivirus scan to continue browsing safely and provides a "Scan" option. However, clicking this button triggers a fake scan, displaying a fabricated list of "detected" threats.

The counterfeit scan is designed to mimic a legitimate Norton Antivirus scan. It is crucial to understand that Norton, a reputable company, has no association with or control over anglow[.]xyz. Anglow[.]xyz is likely operated by affiliates attempting to mislead users into purchasing Norton's security tool to earn commissions.

Additionally, the site seeks permission to show notifications. If allowed, anglow[.]xyz can send a wide range of deceptive notifications, including fake system warnings, error alerts, offers, social media messages, etc. Interacting with notifications from anglow[.]xyz can direct users to technical support scams, phishing sites, malware-distributing platforms, etc.

Websites promoted through notifications from anglow[.]xyz can trick users into disclosing sensitive information (e.g., passwords or personally identifiable information), paying for fake products or services, downloading malicious software, and more.

In conclusion, it is strongly recommended to avoid trusting anglow[.]xyz, deny any notification requests from it, and close the site immediately if encountered.
