Okopartment.club

Okopartment.club is an online tactic that tricks users into accepting browser notifications from a corrupted website. The purpose of this fraudulent scheme is to deliver sponsored advertising content to users' computers directly and then redirect users to potentially corrupted websites where they can get infected with additional malware threats. Okopartment.club exploits a social engineering trick to acquirethe users' permission to send them notifications. Okopartment.club displays a fake error message with the following text:

'Okopartment.club wants to Show notifications

Click Allow to confirm that you are not a robot!'

As you can imagine, clicking on the 'Allow' button subscribes you to intrusive pop-ups and banners about suspicious online gambling pages, websites with adult content, pages where Potentially Unwanted Applications (PUAs) are offered, and other similar dubious resources that you should stay away from.

Users can delete Okopartment.club notifications' permission from the browser's settings menu easily. Yet, if the annoying messages keep showing up, the device should be checked for adware or browser hijackers through an acknowledged anti-malware program.
