Satunians.com is created for the sole purpose of displaying deceptive and manipulative content to its visitor, as part of a rather popular browser-based tactic. The fraudsters try to bait users into enabling the page's push notification services and then abuse the browser permissions associated with this feature to deliver annoying and unwanted advertisements.
There are several commonly used scenarios that these types of hoax pages heavily rely on. Arguably the most frequently encountered one involves the con website pretending to be doing a CAPTCHA check. Users will be instructed that clicking the shown 'Allow' button will verify that they are not robots. Another similarly deceptive scenario sees the hoax page claiming that clicking 'Allow' will grant users access to additional content.
Satunians.com has been observed to use a variation of the second scenario. It pretends that users must prove they are 18+ before accessing the non-existent content offered by the page. The messages used by the site could be similar to:
'Access Page'
If you are 18+ tap Allow'
'To access the website content, click Allow!'
What users who follow the instructions would receive in terms of content is going to be numerous questionable and untrustworthy advertisements. The advertisements could easily employ similar social-engineering tactics to promote more hoax pages or platforms spreading intrusive PUPs (Potentially Unwanted Programs). If users are not careful, they could be tricked into allowing a browser hijacker or adware application to be installed on their computers or devices.
