Secuirtysupportinfo.live is likely to show its visitors various misleading messages as part of online tactics. Pages such as this one are very rarely opened by users intentionally. Instead, they are often encountered as a result of forced redirects caused by rogue advertising networks or intrusive PUPs (Potentially Unwanted Programs). Users also should be warned that the exact tactic they see on the site may vary, based on factors, such as IP addresses, geolocations and possibly others.

One confirmed tactic that Securitysupportinfo.live displayed is a variant of 'Your PC might be infected with viruses!' As part of this fake scenario, the site may generate several pop-up windows to accompany its main page. The generated messages will likely be presented as security alerts and warnings coming from a reputable source, such as Norton. In reality, the Norton company has no connection to the rogue site, and the fraudsters are exploiting its name, logo and brand.

Another tactic commonly used by these untrustworthy websites is to show users the results of a supposed threat scan of their devices. The fraudulent website will claim to have detected numerous issues and malware threats. Again, users should not believe these claims, as no website can perform such scans on its own. Usually, the goal of pages, such as Securitysupportinfo.live, is to generate commission fees for their operators by taking users to legitimate pages that have affiliate tags attached to them. As a result, wherever the users complete a transaction on the opened page, con artists will receive money.
