Browser notification spam in general

Chainintegration.co[.]in, networkcycle.co[.]in, moreadsfeed[.]top, risotoska.co[.]in, and richleads[.]top are merely some of our latest articles on rogue sites.

These webpages aim to deceive visitors into permitting browser notification delivery. Spam notifications promote deceptive and malicious content. Note that any genuine products or services encountered via these adverts are most likely endorsed by scammers who abuse their affiliate programs to obtain illegitimate commissions.

How did mergechainsolutions.co[.]in gain permission to deliver spam notifications?

Websites require user consent to display browser notifications. Therefore, if you are receiving these advertisements from mergechainsolutions.co[.]in – it means that when this page was visited, permission for the delivery was granted by clicking "Allow", "Allow Notifications", or a similar option.

How to prevent deceptive sites from delivering spam notifications?

To avoid receiving undesirable and deceptive browser notifications – do not permit suspicious pages to deliver them (i.e., do not press "Allow", "Allow Notifications", etc.). Instead, ignore or deny notification requests from such sites (i.e., select "Block", "Block Notifications", etc.).

It is worth mentioning that having adware installed on the browser or system may result in dubious websites being forced-open at random. Should you keep experiencing redirects of this kind, check the device and immediately remove all suspect 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.
