Newadsfit.com is an untrustworthy website trying to take advantage of its visitors. It should be pointed out that, in most cases, users do not land on pages of this type intentionally. Typically, they encounter sites like Newadsfit.com as a result of forced redirects caused either by rogue advertising networks or PUPs (Potentially Unwanted Programs) lurking on their computers or devices.
The tactic that Newadsfit.com has been observed to propagate exploits the legitimate push notifications browser feature to deliver unwanted advertisements to the users. However, many rogue pages can modify their misleading content based on the IP address and geolocation of each user. Still, when Newadsfit is opened, it is likely to display misleading or clickbait messages. In one confirmed instance, the site pretended that users must pass a CAPTCHA check with the implication that only after that they could see its content. The displayed message could be a variation of:
'Click 'Allow' if you are not a robot'
However, instead of any useful content, users who press the button will grant Newadsfit.com the browser permissions it needs to start generating advertisements. There is a high chance that the shown advertisements will promote additional, dubious destinations, In fact, simply clicking on the 'Allow' button could result in redirects to other rogue websites. Users should be careful, as they could be taken to fake giveaways, technical support tactics, phishing schemes, platforms spreading more PUPs, shady online betting/gambling portals, etc.
