Sereq[.]click in detail

Sereq[.]click displays a fake video player and instructs visitors to press "Allow" to watch the video. It refers to the "Allow" option provided by a browser and implies that choosing it is required to play a video. However, clicking the "Allow" option permits sereq[.]click to show notifications.

Web pages that use clickbait or other deceptive tactics to obtain permission to send notifications cannot be trusted. Their notifications are often misleading and can direct users to potentially malicious websites. Notifications from sereq[.]click include fake alerts (supposedly from Norton) claiming that a license has expired and urging to activate Norton to clean a computer.

Interacting with these notifications can lead users to websites designed to steal login credentials, credit card details, personal identification details, and other information.
