Gapconnectionbridge.co[.]in in detail

On gapconnectionbridge.co[.]in, a fake pop-up appears featuring a checkbox, the reCAPTCHA logo, and an "I'm not a robot" message. Interacting with this site leads to another message instructing visitors to click "Allow" to prove that they are not robots. Clicking "Allow" permits the page to show notifications.

Trustworthy websites never claim that clicking "Allow" is required to pass a CAPTCHA.

Clicking such notifications can expose users to various scams (e.g., technical support scams, fraudulent giveaways, lotteries, and surveys). Also, users may be directed to phishing websites, sites hosting shady software which might be malicious, and other untrustworthy sites.
