Browser notification spam in general

Pushnotstudio[.]com, webpushtech[.]com, and check-the-trend[.]com are just a few examples of sites akin to emolumentsurvey[.]top that we have analyzed.

Their browser notifications typically push dubious and malicious material. However, legitimate products can be encountered via these advertisements - yet they are unlikely to be endorsed by the actual developers. Scammers who abuse affiliate programs use notification spam to acquire illegitimate commissions.

How did emolumentsurvey[.]top gain permission to deliver spam notifications?

Sites can only display browser notifications if users allow them. Therefore, you have likely visited emolumentsurvey[.]top and permitted it. It is noteworthy that most rogue webpages employ deception (e.g., clickbait, fake CAPTCHA, etc.) to lure visitors into clicking "Allow", "Allow Notifications", or analogous options.

How to prevent deceptive sites from delivering spam notifications?

To avoid receiving undesirable browser notifications, do not consent to suspicious websites delivering them. In other words, do not press "Allow", "Allow Notifications", or similar. Instead, we advise ignoring the requests or denying them (i.e., clicking "Block", "Block Notifications", etc.).

Should your browser keep randomly force-opening questionable sites (e.g., emolumentsurvey[.]top), it is likely due to 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.
