Users rarely open dubious websites, such as Pushycaptcha.live on their own. After all, these Web pages usually lack any useful content. Instead, they are typically used as platforms for various online tactics and, in the vast majority of cases, are encountered as a result of forced redirects. Naturally, users should be careful when dealing with the Pushycaptcha.live site.
Indeed, the page is likely to show visitors various clickbait messages, as a way to lure them into unknowingly enabling its push notifications. Depending on the specific scenario, the site may imply that users must pass a CAPTCHA check. The related messages could be variations of:
'Click 'Allow' to confirm that you are not a robot'
In reality, clicking the button will subscribe the user to the page's notifications. Pressing 'Allow' also could result in redirects to untrustworthy destinations, such as a page running a fake giveaway disguised as a supposed Amazon loyalty program. The notifications delivered by Pushycaptcha.live should be approached with equal levels of skepticism. The advertisements could promote additional tactics, phishing schemes, adult pages, platforms spreading PUPs (Potentially Unwanted Programs) and more.
