A dubious website, Directsad.xyz attempts to take advantage of its visitors by showing them various deceptive, misleading or clickbait messages. Indeed, the page is not concerned with delivering meaningful or useful content, as its primary focus seems to be running a popular browser-based tactic. Like many rogue websites of this type, Driectsad.xyz may attempt to lure users into unknowingly enabling its push notifications. 

The messages shown by the site could vary based on certain factors, commonly the IP address or geolocation of the visitor. As such, the exact false scenario encountered by each user could be different. However, one of the confirmed schemes involves Directsad.xyz stating that to get access to age-restricted and adult content, users must first press the displayed 'Allow' button. Other popular scenarios include the questionable page pretending to be doing a CAPTCHA check or implying that users must press 'Allow' as a way to watch an unspecified video. 

The consequences of following Directsad.xyz's instructions are likely to include the appearance of numerous, unwanted advertisements. The site may abuse the browser permissions associated with the push notifications feature as a way to deliver intrusive advertisements. Users should keep in mind that dealing with advertisements generated by unproven sources requires caution. The advertisements may be promoting additional shady destinations, such as more hoax websites, phishing portals, fake giveaways and more.
