Browser-under-protection.com is a website created specifically to run various online schemes. What users encounter on the page may vary, based on their IP address, geolocation and potentially other factors. No matter what the exact scheme performed by the page is, users should use caution and not trust any of the claims made by it.
When infosec researchers analyzed the Browser-under-protection.com site, they were able to observe three different tactics carried out by it. First, the site may run a variation of 'Your Chrome Is Severely Damaged By 13 Malware,' in an attempt to scare users into believing that their browsers or devices have been infected by threats. The page also may try to pass equally fake claims as a legitimate 'Critical Alert' that recommends immediately performing a 'Security Checkup.' Users should keep in mind that no website can perform a threat scan and any claims related to such functionality are most likely completely false. Finally, Browser-under-protection.com may try to show users an article about an Android OS application.
Typically, the end goal of these hoaxes is to trick users into installing a promoted application that turns out to be an annoying PUP (Potentially Unwanted Program). However, even if the offered product is a real one, users should still not get it from a random website found on the Internet. The con artists are simply trying to earn illegitimate commission fees through dubious affiliation programs.
