Deeginews.com doesn't deliver news or any relevant content to its visitors. No, the main reason that this page exists is so that it can run a popular tactic that takes advantage of the legitimate push notifications browser feature. The unlucky visitors who land on the site will be presented with various misleading or clickbait messages, designed specifically to convince them to enable the page's notifications.

It should be pointed out that dubious websites such as Deeginews.com are rarely opened by users intentionally. It is far more likely that they appear due to unwanted redirects caused by PUPs (Potentially Unwanted Programs) or as a result of visiting sites utilizing rogue advertising networks.

The exact scenario shown by Deegines.com could vary, based on different factors, such as the incoming IP address and geolocation of the user. One confirmed instance sees that site display a video window with the message 'Skip Ad.' The implication is that to see the non-existent video, users must click on the available 'Allow' button.

Doing so will have two major effects. First, it might trigger a redirect to another equally untrustworthy site. Users may be taken to phishing pages, fake giveaways, shady adult-oriented platforms and more. Secondly, users will be enabling the page's push notification services. Afterward, Deeginews.com will be able to generate different intrusive advertisements as part of an annoying ad campaign. The advertisements could utilize similar clickbait tactics to promote suspicious or outright corrupted pages. They also could try to convince users to download and install applications that turn out to be disguised PUPs.
