How to remove permissions given to flyfreeads.top

What kind of page is flyfreeads[.]top?

We have examined flyfreeads[.]top and discovered that its purpose is to obtain permission to show notifications. The page uses clickbait to trick visitors into granting it this permission. Usually, notifications from sites like flyfreeads[.]top are deceptive. Thus, flyfreeads[.]top should never be allowed to send them.

Flyfreeads[.]top in detail

Flyfreeads[.]top displays a loading bar with a message requesting to "tap the Allow button to continue". This is a manipulation tactic designed to make the action seem harmless or necessary to access content on the page. In reality, when users click the "Allow" button, they inadvertently give the site permission to send notifications directly to their device.

By granting notification permissions to such sites, users unknowingly expose themselves to unwanted content that can compromise their browsing experience and potentially lead to more serious security threats. During our inspection, we found that flyfreeads[.]top can show fake alerts.

These alerts claim that System Restore encountered an unexpected error (0x81000203) and encourage users to run System Restore again. They also contain a fake message claiming that a card payment has failed and urging users to update their payment to activate protection. These notifications, if interacted with, can expose users to various threats.

For instance, they may lead users to technical support scams, fake giveaways, lotteries, surveys, and other fraudulent schemes. They might also open sites hosting malicious apps. Users might be tricked into paying scammers money, downloading malicious software, disclosing sensitive information, and taking other actions.

Therefore, it is crucial to be cautious and avoid interacting with suspicious pop-ups, notifications, or requests from untrusted websites like flyfreeads[.]top.

How to prevent deceptive sites from delivering spam notifications?

If you come across an unreliable or shady website requesting permission to show notifications, opt for "Block", "Deny", or simply close the site.
