Allcontrolpc.com is a site that users should approach with caution. In fact, even seeing the page is worth investigating, as rogue websites, such as this one, are very rarely opened intentionally. In most cases, users are taken to these pages because of forced redirects that may have been triggered by rogue advertising networks or PUPs (Potentially Unwanted Programs) lurking on their devices.
The tactic that Allcontrolpc.com has been observed to run is a version of 'You've visited illegal infected website' but the deceptive content seen on the page may differ based on users' IP addresses/geolocations. This particular scheme consists of the rogue page making several false claims about malware threats or issues being detected on the user's device. The site may even show a supposed threat scan that has identified the issues. However, all of these claims are entirely fake - no website is capable of such functionality on its own.
To further boost the illusion that the user's device is at risk, these rogue websites often misrepresent their fake alerts as coming from a reputable source. In this case, Allcontrolpc.com uses the name, brand, and interface design associated with the McAfee Corp., even though the company is in no way connected to the page. This is simply another tactic used to trick users. The goal of the con artists is to scare their victims into buying a subscription for a promoted product. This could be a legitimate security tool, with the fraudsters trying to earn commission fees for each transaction completed successfully.
