Browser notification spam in general

We have investigated countless rogue pages; myultimatesafeguard[.]comnews-lifume[.]com, and notifgetnews[.]com are merely a couple of examples. These websites deliver browser notifications that promote deceptive/malicious content, although the pages themselves may look incredibly different and use varied lures.

Remember that while legitimate products or services may be encountered through these advertisements – they are unlikely to be endorsed in this manner 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 acquire illegitimate commissions.

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

Websites need user consent to deliver browser notifications. Therefore, if you are receiving these ads from gluxouvauque[.]com – it means that when this page was visited, permission for their delivery was granted by selecting "Allow", "Allow Notifications", or an analogous option.

How to prevent deceptive sites from delivering spam notifications?

If you enter a dubious webpage – do not enable it to display browser notifications (i.e., do not click "Allow", "Allow Notifications", etc.). We advise denying notification delivery from such pages (i.e., pressing "Block", "Block Notifications", etc.) or ignoring these requests in their entirety.

Should you keep experiencing continuous random redirects to questionable sites, it could be due to adware installed on the browser or system. If your computer is already infected with rogue applications, 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.
