Prowimoniser.com Ticks Visitors with a Fake CAPTCHA
During the examination of Prowimoniser.com, it was found that the website utilizes a clickbait strategy to deceive visitors into consenting to receive notifications. The site displays a misleading message which prompts users to click the 'Allow' button to verify that they are not robots, but in reality, it is a fake CAPTCHA.
Allowing notifications from websites such as Prowimoniser.com can lead to the promotion of scams, phishing sites, untrustworthy pages, and questionable or even harmful applications (e.g., adware and browser hijackers). Some of these pages may even contain malicious content, which could compromise the security of a user's device.
Moreover, it was discovered that Prowimoniser.com might also redirect visitors to similar deceptive websites. Therefore, both the site and the destinations it redirects to should not be trusted. It is highly recommended that users never consent to receive notifications from such pages to avoid any potential harm to their devices and personal information.
How to Recognize a Fake CAPTCHA Check?
To differentiate between a real CAPTCHA check and a fake one, users should look for certain cues. A real CAPTCHA check typically involves a challenge that verifies if the user is human, such as asking the user to identify objects in a series of pictures or solve a simple math problem. The challenge is often easy to complete and should not require any personal information or financial details from the user.
On the other hand, a fake CAPTCHA check often involves misleading or deceptive messages that prompt the user to click a button to verify their identity or prove that they are not robots. These messages may be designed to mimic a real CAPTCHA, but they typically do not involve any actual challenge to verify the user's humanity. Instead, they may redirect the user to other deceptive websites or obtain permission to send notifications.
Users should also be cautious of any CAPTCHA checks that ask for personal information or financial details, as these are not typically required to verify a user's humanity. Additionally, users should ensure that the CAPTCHA is displayed on a legitimate and trusted website, as some phishing sites may attempt to mimic the design of a real website to deceive users into providing personal information or financial details.
