Celeb-hot-treands.com is unlikely to be a destination that users decided to visit intentionally. In fact, as its name suggests, the site tries to exploit any typos that users may make while trying to open other pages about celebrity news. In addition, dubious pages, such as Celeb-hot-treands.com are often encountered as a result of forced redirects. Two common causes for such redirects are rogue advertising networks and intrusive PUPs (Potentially Unwanted Programs).
As for the content found on Celeb-hot-treands.com, it may be dependent on the visitor's IP address, geolocation and possibly other factors. However, in the vast majority of cases, dubious websites, such as this one are used by their operators as a way to run popular online tactics. Celeb-hot-treands.com is not an exception, as cybersecurity researchers have observed it displaying deceptive or manipulative messages. The goal of the page is to trick users into enabling its push notifications under various false pretenses.
One confirmed scenario sees the page claiming that users must press 'Allow' to gain access to a supposed video. The exact messages may be similar to:
'Click 'Allow' to continue'
'Your Video Is Ready
Press Play to start the video'
The browser permissions associated with the push notifications feature will allow the site to start delivering unwanted advertisements to users, likely generating monetary gains for its operators in the process. Users should be aware that trusting advertisements generated by unfamiliar or unproven sources is rather risky. The advertisements may be promoting dubious and untrustworthy destinations, such as other hoax websites, PUPs (Potentially Unwanted Programs) equipped with adware, browser hijacker, and data-collection capabilities, phishing or technical support schemes, etc.
