What kind of page is gounrical[.]com?

We have inspected gounrical[.]com and found that this site presents a misleading message to lure visitors into granting it permission to show notifications. If allowed, gounrical[.]com sends deceptive notifications (e.g., fake warnings) to promote scams and other unreliable content.

Gounrical[.]com in detail

On gounrical[.]com, a misleading message saying to click "Allow" to confirm that you are not a robot is presented. The site claims that it is required to perform this action to pass a CAPTCHA. Nevertheless, after doing so, gounrical[.]com obtains permission to show notifications.

Web pages that use clickbait or other deceptive tactics should never be permitted to send notifications. Our analysis has shown that gounrical[.]com can send notifications containing fake system warnings claiming that a virus, identified as "Trojan_%$@!F", has been detected on the user's Windows system.

These notifications also state that the system will be deleted in 10 minutes unless action is taken. Interacting with them can take users to web pages designed to trick them into entering sensitive personal information, such as passwords or credit card details. Users may also land on sites crafted to steal money (e.g., to promote fake products or services).

Additionally, notifications sent by gounrical[.]com can lead to websites hosting malware or other unwanted software. Allowing this site to send notifications can result in financial loss, identity theft, computer infections, and other consequences. Thus, gounrical[.]com should never be allowed to send them.

If gounrical[.]com or other untrustworthy site displays notifications, permission to do so should be revoked as soon as possible.
