Despite its name, Luckydatingspot.top doesn't have anything to do with dating. In fact, its sole purpose for even existing is to deliver dubious content to all of its visitors. It also performs a popular browser-based tactic where users are lured into subscribing to the page's push notification services unknowingly.
It should be noted that Luckydatingspot.top is just the latest website proliferating this tactic. There are countless other sites that act in the same way. They show manipulative messages and, under false pretenses, try to convince users into clicking the 'Allow' button. The messages may vary, but some of the most commonly encountered include:
'Click Allow to verify that you are not a robot'
'File is ready for download.'
'If 18+, click Allow'
'Click Allow to watch video'
If the con page is successful, it will proceed to run an intrusive ad campaign. Numerous shady advertisements will be generated and delivered via the affected browser. In the process, the operators of the dubious page will start generating monetary gains.
If users encounter pages such as Luckydatingspot.top far too frequently during their browsing activities, it may be a sign that there is a PUP (Potentially Unwanted Program) lurking on their computers or devices. When dealing with these intrusive applications, it is recommended to use a professional security solution. Otherwise, if the PUP is not removed completely, it may return via a persistence mechanism it may have established on the system.
