Con artists use another untrustworthy and deceptive website to exploit unsuspecting visitors. The name of the page is Cophypserous.com, and it propagates one of the more common browser-based tactics. The page operators seek to exploit the legitimate push notifications browser feature to deliver unwanted promotional materials to users.
Cophypserous.com hides its intentions behind various fake and manipulative scenarios to achieve its goal. Users should always be mindful of such potential tricks when browsing the Internet. For example, one of the clickbait messages shown by Cophypserous.com implies that visitors must pass a CAPTCHA check before they can reach the supposed content of the page. Users will be shown an image of a robot that is likely to be accompanied by a message similar to:
'CLICK 'ALLOW' TO CONFIRM THAT YOU ARE NOT A ROBOT!'
However, following the instructions and pressing the displayed 'Allow' button will have a completely different outcome. Users will grant the page important browser permissions as part of the push notifications feature. As a result, Cophypserous.com could easily deliver advertisements and other notifications. Interacting with advertisements generated by suspicious or unfamiliar sources could be risky. The advertisements may promote online tactics, fake giveaways, phishing portals, technical support frauds, etc. It is strongly recommended that users promptly remove all browser permissions granted to the page.
