Browser notification spam in general
Bridgeconnection.co[.]in, gapconnectionbridge.co[.]in, yourwebarmorsolutions[.]com, oxylersess.co[.]in, and clickads-hub[.]top are merely some of our newest articles on rogue webpages. Their goal is to trick visitors into enabling browser notification delivery.
Spam notifications endorse deceptive and malicious content. While legitimate products or services may be encountered through these ads – they are unlikely to be promoted in this fashion by any official parties. It is most probable that this promotion is undertaken by scammers who abuse the endorsed content's affiliate programs to acquire illegitimate commissions.
How did whubaesingotbrewer[.]com gain permission to deliver spam notifications?
Websites cannot deliver browser notifications without user consent. Therefore, you have likely accessed whubaesingotbrewer[.]com at some point and permitted the advertisement delivery by selecting "Allow", "Allow Notifications", or a similar option.
It is worth mentioning that rogue sites often use various lures (e.g., fake CAPTCHA verification tests, clickbait, explicit adult-oriented content, etc.) to entice users into enabling notifications.
How to prevent deceptive sites from delivering spam notifications?
It is important to always be selective when permitting websites to deliver browser notifications. Dubious pages must not be allowed to do so; instead, their notification requests have to be ignored or denied (i.e., by pressing "Block", "Block Notifications", etc.).
It is noteworthy that having adware installed on the browser or system may result in questionable sites being force-opened at random. Should you keep experiencing such redirects, inspect the device and immediately remove all suspicious 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.
