EnigmaSoft Threat Scorecard
EnigmaSoft Threat Scorecards are assessment reports for different malware threats which have been collected and analyzed by our research team. EnigmaSoft Threat Scorecards evaluate and rank threats using several metrics including real-world and potential risk factors, trends, frequency, prevalence, and persistence. EnigmaSoft Threat Scorecards are updated regularly based on our research data and metrics and are useful for a wide range of computer users, from end users seeking solutions to remove malware from their systems to security experts analyzing threats.
EnigmaSoft Threat Scorecards display a variety of useful information, including:

The Dotchaudou.com website exists for the sole reason of presenting its visitors with a popular browser-based tactic. As part of its deceitful actions, the site may display various false, misleading, and clickbait messages designed to lure users into pressing the displayed 'Allow' button. However, the exact scenario shown on the page may be based on different factors, such as the visitor's IP address or geolocation.
One confirmed case involves the site prominently displaying a loading bar that is presumably stuck at the moment. The site tries to create the impression that to access a supposed video, users must first click the 'Allow' button. The exact message could be a variation of 'Click the Allow button to subscribe to the push notifications and continue watching.'
Instead of seeing any video, users will be granting important browser permissions to the dubious page. Indeed, Dotchaudou.com will now be able to run an annoying and intrusive advertising campaign. Apart from severely diminished browsing experience, users also risk being exposed to ads for fake giveaways, phishing schemes, or other online tactics. Furthermore, advertisements related to such questionable sources have also been commonly observed to promote and spread invasive PUPs (Potentially Unwanted Programs), such as adware, browser hijackers, data collectors and more.
