Oojk.pro

Oojk.pro is a scheme that uses social engineering techniques to trick users into subscribing to browser notifications from the unsafe website oojk.pro. The misleading error message that appears on the website says:

'Oojk.pro wants to Show notifications

Click Allow to watch the video.'

Once the users click on the 'Allow' button, they start receiving constant pop-ups from Oojk.pro on their phone or computer directly, even when the browser is not launched. The unwanted spam advertisements promote online games, websites with adult content, fake software updates or other potentially harmful applications and tools.

The only way to stop the annoying advertisements from showing up is to delete Oojk.pro permission to display browser notifications. This tactic affects all popular browsers on Windows and Mac, and users typically land on this page after visiting other compromised websites that contain links or advertisements that redirect to Oojk.pro. A free browser extension like Adblock can block corrupted advertisements. However, if you keep seeing Oojk.pro pop-ups even after deleting its permission or installing an ad-blocking tool, your computer might be infected with an adware program or a browser hijacker. These may have changed your browser settings to redirect you to unsafe sources on the Internet.
