Advnotlab.com is another deceptive website trying to take advantage of its visitors. The page operates in an almost entirely identical way to the countless other untrustworthy sites exploiting the legitimate push notifications browser feature. By showing users various false and misleading messages, Advnotlab.com attempts to lure them into clicking the displayed 'Allow' button.

The most commonly encountered scenario consists of rogue websites trying to create the impression that users must pass a CAPTCHA check. Of course, this is all fake, as there is no such check and the sites do not contain any additional content. Advnotlab.com also has been observed to claim that an unspecified file is ready for download. In this case, the prominently displayed message could be a variation of:

'Click 'Allow' to start downloading'

Pressing the button will enable Advnotlab.com's push notifications, allowing the site to start running an unwanted ad campaign. The rogue page could generate advertisements leading to other similarly untrustworthy destinations. Interacting with the advertisements could trigger forced redirects to phishing schemes, fake giveaways, suspicious adult-oriented pages, or platforms spreading intrusive PUPs (Potentially Unwanted Programs).
