The message states: "You need to be subscribed to be able to watch the videos. Click "Allow" to subscribe to Push Notifications. Please note that you might also receive promotional notifications". And "Allow" button is displayed, which, if clicked, runs the script showing a standard browser dialog window, offering to allow notifications from Get-content.site.

After users click the "Allow" button, they will receive numerous push alerts in browsers that are really unwelcome. Besides, redirects may promote software and goods of low quality. In rare cases, ads by Saumeechoa.com can be powered by a browser extension or desktop application. Once you find and remove the program causing it, you will get rid of pop-ups.

In short, Omnatuor.com can be described as a shady website trying to allure users into allowing fake push-notifications. The website is actually a part of huge "darknet" advertising network, that uses social engineering tricks to delude inexperienced users and make them subscribe to unwanted browser notifications. However, as long as the story goes, there is a lot more to point about it. Such websites are usually meant to create adware-based traffic for revenue purposes. This means that by enabling such notifications provided by Omnatuor.com, you expose your desktop to being a receiving end for unwanted content (e.g. ads, banners, coupons, etc.). Even if they seem to be nice at first glance, interacting with such banners may lead to visiting explicit and malicious pages. Also, worth noting that if you stumble upon this redirect each time using your browser, your PC might be in claws of adware infection. This, therefore, can put your data at serious risk because such apps are capable of tracking personal data and selling it further on the dark market. To make sure you are safe from this, we insist on disabling push-notifications and deleting a program that causes redirects to Omnatuor.com. All the necessary instructions to do so can be found in our tutorial below.

Blandcaptcha.top is a deceptive website making bad use of the push-notification feature to promote spam content. On the initial basis, push-notifications are a legitimate feature available in many popular browsers allowing legitimate resources to notify you about new updates right on a desktop in the bottom right corner. Unfortunately, fraudulent marketers exploit this feature to trick inexperienced users into subscribing to unwanted and spammy advertisements. Blandcaptcha.top may ask its visitors to click on the "Allow" button under the pretense of verifying that you are not a robot, watching a video, downloading your file, or something similar. As mentioned, doing what such websites say will lead to unstoppable streams of unwanted banners right on your desktop. The displayed content may supply users with threats about fake system infections, advertise unwanted software, adult websites, and fake lottery winnings. This deceptive marketing technique may target both Mac and Windows users. We thus recommend you follow our guide below if you are victims of Blandcaptcha.top. Instructions underneath will also be suitable for other websites of such in case a similar incident occurs in the future.

Ursearch.net is a fake search engine address, which can be displayed in browsers due to a hijacker infection. Browser hijackers are a type of unwanted software designed to replace default browser settings with fake search engines and suspicious advertising algorithms. Such changes are thereby used to cause unauthorized redirects and generate illegal traffic on entered queries. The main reason why Ursearch.net is considered fake and therefore unable to bring any unique value to users comes from its reliance on legitimate search engines like Google or Yahoo to generate results. Browser hijackers and other similar software like adware may also be able to keep track of sensitive information entered in browsers (e.g. passwords, IP-addresses, geolocations, history, cookies, etc.) and use it for future monetization abuse. It is also worth mentioning that domains like Ursearch.net do not work without support - this is why they are usually backed by extensions or small desktop applications running as a background process in Task Manager. If you are also one of the Ursearch.net victims, follow the guidelines below to remove it and restore your safety.

InfoMajorSearch is an unwanted adware application designed to inject potentially dangerous advertising content into browsers working on macOS. Cyber experts suppose it is part of the AdLoad malware family which has developed a number of similar infections. Ads and banners promoted by InfoMajorSearch can use virtual layers to appear on any website a user is going to visit. Clicking on them may lead to unwanted or even compromised resources - fake download pages, phishing and scam websites, social engineering techniques, and other potentially infectious channels. Users infected with adware may also become victims of slower browser and computer performance. This is because such software is likely to work in the background consuming extra system resources to maintain its features. Moreover, unwanted software may be able to track information used in a browser. Entered passwords, IP-addresses, geolocations, and other sensitive information may be gathered and used for financial abuse.

Once visited, the dubious page claims every user subscribed to the Mr. Beast channel will get a reward of 1000$. Some users may be easily tricked into believing it is actually true as this Youtuber is particularly known for giving out a lot of money. Despite this, such a page has nothing related to the original 64+M channel held by Jimmy Donaldson a.k.a. Mr. Beast. Regardless, in order to claim your non-existing prize, developers ask you to click on the "CLAIM REWARD" button. This will open the page with sponsored software that has to be downloaded by users. In fact, this is a trick meant to force inexperienced people into downloading unwanted or even malicious software. Then, it is necessary to enter your PayPal e-mail address and wait for the upcoming reward within a couple of minutes.
