Browser notification spam in general

We have written about numerous rogue pages; werterware[.]com, mesofirewall.co[.]in, mospross.co[.]in, and tageraplaby.co[.]in are merely some of our newest articles. These websites are designed to trick users into permitting browser notification delivery; this goal is often achieved through various lures, such as clickbait, fake CAPTCHA verification, adult-oriented content, etc.

Spam notifications promote deceptive and malicious content. These advertisements can endorse legitimate products or services. However, official parties are unlikely to be behind this endorsement. It is most probable that the promotion is undertaken by scammers who abuse the content's affiliate programs to obtain illegitimate commissions.

It is important to be selective when permitting sites to deliver browser notifications. Suspicious pages must not be enabled to do so; instead, their requests have to be ignored or denied (i.e., by clicking "Block", "Block Notifications", etc.).

It is noteworthy that having adware installed on the browser/system can result in dubious webpages being forced-open at random. Should you keep experiencing such redirects, check the device and immediately remove all suspect applications and browser extensions/plug-ins.
