Medicmediai[.]com overview

It is pertinent to mention that the content encountered on and through rogue sites may vary depending on visitors' IP addresses (geolocations). At the time of research, medicmediai[.]com presented us with a fake CAPTCHA test. The page depicted five cartoonish robots and instructions – "Click 'Allow' if you are not a robot".

Browser notification spam in general

We have analyzed numerous rogue webpages; loboodae[.]com, madstudiyo[.]com, and lookinews[.]com are merely a couple of our newest articles.

These sites deliver browser notifications that promote deceptive and malicious content. Keep in mind that any genuine products or services encountered via said adverts are most likely endorsed by scammers who abuse their affiliate programs to acquire illegitimate commissions.

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

Websites require user consent to display browser notifications. Therefore, if you are seeing these ads from medicmediai[.]com – it means that when this page was accessed, permission for their delivery was granted by clicking "Allow", "Allow Notifications", or an analogous option.

It is worth mentioning that rogue sites commonly use fake CAPTCHA verification tests and other types of clickbait to lure visitors into enabling their browser notifications.

How to prevent deceptive sites from delivering spam notifications?

To avoid receiving unwanted browser notifications – do not permit questionable pages to deliver them (i.e., do not press "Allow", "Allow Notifications", etc.). We advise ignoring or denying notification delivery from such webpages (i.e., selecting "Block", "Block Notifications", etc.).

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