What kind of page is lingfidancytows[.]com?

Our inspection of lingfidancytows[.]com has revealed that the purpose of this page is to trick visitors into agreeing to receive its notifications. The site uses clickbait to get this permission. If allowed, lingfidancytows[.]com delivers notifications containing fake warnings and similar messages.

Lingfidancytows[.]com in detail

On lingfidancytows[.]com, a message instructing visitors to click "Allow" to confirm that they are not robots is displayed. The page implies that this action is required to pass a CAPTCHA. In reality, clicking "Allow" (or a similar option provided by a browser) grants the site permission to show notifications.

This method is known as clickbait, and websites that use it often show deceptive notifications. During our analysis, we found that notifications from lingfidancytows[.]com include fake system warnings informing users about "detected" viruses and claiming that a computer is damaged by suspicious threats.

These notifications urge users to click the "Delete viruses" or "Remove" button to eliminate the supposedly detected threats. Interacting with such notifications can direct users to phishing websites and other scams (e.g., technical support scams or fake giveaways) and pages distributing unwanted applications (potentially malicious ones).

On these websites, users may be tricked into disclosing credit card details, login credentials, ID card details, and other personal information. They may also be deceived into paying for fake (or unnecessary) products and services or installing potentially harmful applications.

For these reasons, it is important not to allow suspicious websites like lingfidancytows[.]com to show notifications and remove permissions granted to web pages of this kind.

More about similar websites

Users often land on these sites unintentionally, typically after clicking misleading ads, opening links in scam emails, or interacting with pop-ups triggered by adware. They may also come across such pages while visiting websites that use rogue advertising networks (these networks are often users by torrent pages, illegal movie streaming sites, and similar platforms).

Examples of similar websites are venesemise[.]com, llowofthenamf[.]org, and rprldnwsq1[.]xyz.

How did lingfidancytows[.]com gain permission to deliver spam notifications?

If you are seeing notifications from lingfidancytows[.]com, it is because you have previously given the site permission to send them. Websites can only deliver notifications after users manually approve them, typically by clicking “Allow”, “Enable Notifications”, or a similar option in a browser pop-up.

How to prevent deceptive sites from delivering spam notifications?

If a questionable website wants to send notifications, you can refuse by clicking "Block", "Deny", or a similar button/option. Another way to avoid granting permission is to simply close the site without interacting with the prompt. If you are receiving unwanted notifications, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate them.

How to avoid browser notification spam?

Internet users should be very skeptical when being asked to allow notifications. While this is a useful feature that allows you to receive timely news from websites you like, deceptive marketers frequently abuse it.

Only allow notifications from websites that you fully trust. For added security - use an anti-malware application with a real-time web browsing monitor to block shady websites that tries to trick you into allowing spam notifications. We recommend using Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows.
