Browser notification spam in general

Bestrecgetpreview[.]com, carenotifsolution[.]xyz, and whoaglaugnow[.]com are just a couple examples of rogue pages we have examined recently. Sites of this kind display browser notifications that push deceptive and malicious content.

Remember that any genuine products/services encountered through these advertisements are most likely promoted by scammers seeking to obtain illegitimate commissions by abusing their affiliate programs.

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

All websites need user consent to display browser notifications. Therefore, if you are receiving these adverts from iwheenaiga[.]com – it means that when this page was visited, permission for the delivery was given by clicking "Allow", "Allow Notifications", or a similar option.

How to prevent deceptive sites from delivering spam notifications?

We recommend being selective about which websites you permit to deliver browser notifications. Do not enable suspect pages to do so (i.e., do not click "Allow", "Allow Notifications", etc.). Instead, ignore or deny notification requests from such webpages (i.e., select "Block", "Block Notifications", etc.).

Should your browser continuously force-open dubious sites without prompt, it could be due to adware installed on the device. If your computer is already infected with rogue applications, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate them.
