What kind of page is orprotocol[.]pro?
Our team has reviewed orprotocol[.]pro and found that it is designed to trick visitors into giving it permission to show notifications. If allowed, orprotocol[.]pro can send fake notifications (e.g., system warnings) to lure users into opening other, potentially malicious sites.
Orprotocol[.]pro in detail
Orprotocol[.]pro displays an image of a robot alongside a checkbox, suggesting that ticking it will verify that the visitor is not a robot. It also shows a warning that suspicious traffic has been detected from the visitor's network and claims it can confirm their identity as a human.
After this, the site prompts the visitor to click "Allow" as a final step to prove they are not a robot. This is a form of clickbait designed to deceive users into enabling notifications. If permission is granted, orprotocol[.]pro can send unwanted notifications that may direct users to unsafe websites.
Orprotocol[.]pro can show notifications posing as system warnings and claiming that a computer is infected with five viruses. These notifications urge users to click the provided button/link to renew antivirus (turn on protection) and delete viruses. However, doing so can lead users to untrustworthy sites.
These sites can be created to extract sensitive information from users, such as passwords or credit card details. They can also employ deceptive tactics to trick individuals into transferring money to scammers or downloading unwanted (potentially malicious) software.
Overall, allowing orprotocol[.]pro to show notifications can lead to various issues, including monetary loss, identity theft, and computer infections. If orprotocol[.]pro has been permitted to send notifications, this permission should be revoked as soon as possible.

How did orprotocol[.]pro gain permission to deliver spam notifications?
