Infosec researchers are warning users about another deceptive website that is running online tactics. The page is named Guroshied.com and has been observed trying to take advantage of the legitimate push notifications browser feature. Sites such as this one may display manipulative or clickbait messages to their visitors with the goal of luring them into unknowingly subscribing to the page's push notifications.
There are numerous, fake scenarios that these con websites could utilize. For example, users may see messages claiming that clicking the site's 'Allow' button will grant them access to a video or a file will become available for download. Other may promise that the button will open adult-oriented or age-restricted content. Guroshield.com has been confirmed to pretend that users must pass a CAPTCHA check by displaying an image of a robot and a message similar to:
'Click Allow to confirm that you are not a robot!'
If Guroshied.com is successful, it will receive the browser permissions it requires to start delivering annoying advertisements to users. The shown advertisements are unlikely to be for legitimate pages, services or products. Indeed, users should be warned that advertisements related to such unproven sources often promote PUPs (Potentially Unwanted Programs), fake giveaways, phishing portals and other dubious or even unsafe destinations. Furthermore, interacting with the site or its advertisements could result in forced redirects leading to similarly untrustworthy pages.
