Surilour.co[.]in overview

It is noteworthy that the content encountered on and through rogue websites might be influenced by the visitor's IP address (geolocation).

At the time of research, surilour.co[.]in presented us with a two-step imitation of a CAPTCHA test. The first part was a checkbox that had to be clicked beside the statement – "I'm not a robot". The second was instructions to – "Click 'Allow' to confirm that you are not a robot", and it is this step that unintentionally enables surilour.co[.]in to deliver browser notifications.

Browser notification spam in general

We have investigated numerous rogue pages; slocatic.co[.]in, pressers.co[.]in, and sedfopso.co[.]in are just a couple of our latest articles. These webpages are designed to push browser notification spam, a goal that is often achieved by relying on clickbait (e.g., fake CAPTCHA verification tests, explicit adult-oriented content, etc.).

Advertisements of this kind are used to promote online scams and even malicious software. While legitimate products or services may be encountered via spam notifications, they are unlikely to be endorsed by any official parties. This endorsement is most likely undertaken by scammers who abuse the promoted content's affiliate programs to acquire illegitimate commissions.

How did surilour.co[.]in gain permission to deliver spam notifications?

Websites can only deliver browser notifications with user consent. Therefore, if you are seeing these adverts from surilour.co[.]in – it means that when this page was visited, permission for their delivery was granted by clicking "Allow", "Allow Notifications", or a similar option.

How to prevent deceptive sites from delivering spam notifications?

To avoid receiving unwanted or deceptive browser notifications – do not permit suspect webpages to deliver them (i.e., do not press "Allow", "Allow Notifications", etc.). Instead, ignore or deny notification delivery requests from such pages (i.e., select "Block", "Block Notifications", etc.).

It is worth mentioning that having adware installed on the browser/system can result in dubious websites being forced-open at random. Should you keep experiencing redirects of this kind, check the device and immediately remove all suspicious applications and browser extensions/plug-ins.

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?
