How to block wexprotocol.co.in notifications

What kind of page is wexprotocol.co[.]in?

Our team has inspected wexprotocol.co[.]in and discovered that its purpose is to trick visitors into agreeing to receive notifications from it. Once the page has permission to show notifications, it delivers fake warnings and similar messages. Thus, wexprotocol.co[.]in should not be trusted (and not be allowed to display notifications).

Wexprotocol.co[.]in in detail

Wexprotocol.co[.]in claims that suspicious traffic has been detected from the visitors' network and that the page will confirm that they are not robots. It also presents an image of a robot and a misleading checkbox. Upon interaction, wexprotocol.co[.]in instructs visitors to click "Allow" to prove that they are not robots.

This scheme is designed to lure visitors into clicking "Allow" (an option presented by a browser), which grants the site permission to show notifications. Notifications from wexprotocol.co[.]in often include a fake Windows Security alert designed to scare users into thinking their computer is infected.

They mimic legitimate system warnings but are not from Windows or any trusted security software. The goal is to pressure users into clicking the message, which can lead to scam websites and unwanted downloads. Users may be tricked into disclosing passwords, ID card information, credit card details, or other personal information, installing potentially malicious apps, and more.

Therefore, it is strongly recommended not to agree to receive notifications from websites like wexprotocol.co[.]in. If such notifications already appear, permission to show them should be removed as soon as possible.
