Captcatest.top joins the ranks of the thousand shady pages that attempt to exploit its visitors. The site is most likely capable of using different misleading and clickbait scenarios. What users see on the page could be influenced by factors such as their specific IP address and geolocation. In general, however, Captchatest.top tries to take advantage of the legitimate push notifications feature to earn monetary gains for its operators. 

The name of the page suggests that it might try to lure its unsuspecting visitors by convincing them that they must pass a CAPTCHA check in order to access its supposed content. The site has also been observed to display suggestive adult-oriented messages. However, no matter what the exact text of the shown messages is, users are likely to be directed toward pressing the displayed 'Allow' button. 

Pressing the button will grant Captchatest.top all of the browser permissions associated with the push notification feature. The site will then be able to deliver various unwanted ads through the affected browser. The advertisements are extremely unlikely to promote legitimate destinations or products. Instead, these rogue websites are notorious for presenting users with ads for untrustworthy websites such as ones running fake giveaways, phishing schemes, or spreading intrusive PUPs (Potentially Unwanted Programs).
