What kind of page is santionrerm.co[.]in?
While investigating suspicious websites, our researchers discovered the santionrerm.co[.]in rogue page. It operates by promoting browser notification spam. Additionally, this webpage can redirect visitors to other (likely dubious/malicious) sites. Users primarily access santionrerm.co[.]in and pages akin to it via redirects caused by websites that employ rogue advertising networks.
Santionrerm.co[.]in overview
It is noteworthy that the content encountered on and through rogue sites may differ depending on the visitor's IP address (geolocation). At the time of research, the santionrerm.co[.]in website used a fake CAPTCHA verification test to promote its notifications. The page displayed instructions to – "Click 'Allow' to confirm that you are not a robot".
If a visitor is deceived by this bogus test, they will inadvertently permit santionrerm.co[.]in to display browser notifications. These advertisements mainly endorse online scams, untrustworthy/harmful software, and even malware.
In summary, via webpages like santionrerm.co[.]in – users may experience system infections, serious privacy issues, financial losses, and identity theft.

Browser notification spam in general
Fulltimehighpotencyguard[.]info, mycommonjournal.com, earthheartsmith[.]top, and gebehee[.]top are just a few examples of rogue sites we have examined recently. While the appearance of these webpages can vary greatly, their browser notifications promote deceptive/malicious material.
Keep in mind that while legitimate products/services may be encountered through these adverts – they are unlikely to be endorsed in this fashion by any official parties. It is most probable that this endorsement is undertaken by scammers who abuse the content's affiliate programs in order to obtain illegitimate commissions.
How did santionrerm.co[.]in gain permission to deliver spam notifications?
Rogue webpages need user consent to deliver browser notifications. Hence, if you are receiving these ads from santionrerm.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.
It is pertinent to mention that rogue sites often use deception (e.g., fake CAPTCHA verification tests, clickbait, adult-oriented content, etc.) to trick visitors into enabling notifications.
How to prevent deceptive sites from delivering spam notifications?
Should you access a suspicious webpage – do not enable it to display browser notifications (i.e., do not click "Allow", "Allow Notifications", etc.). Instead, we advise denying notification delivery from such pages (i.e., selecting "Block", "Block Notifications", etc.) or ignoring these requests altogether.
In case of continuous unprompted redirects to questionable websites, check the device for installed adware. If your computer is already infected with rogue applications, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate them.
