Threat Scorecard
EnigmaSoft Threat Scorecard
EnigmaSoft Threat Scorecards are assessment reports for different malware threats which have been collected and analyzed by our research team. EnigmaSoft Threat Scorecards evaluate and rank threats using several metrics including real-world and potential risk factors, trends, frequency, prevalence, and persistence. EnigmaSoft Threat Scorecards are updated regularly based on our research data and metrics and are useful for a wide range of computer users, from end users seeking solutions to remove malware from their systems to security experts analyzing threats.
EnigmaSoft Threat Scorecards display a variety of useful information, including:
Ranking: The ranking of a particular threat in EnigmaSoft’s Threat Database.
Severity Level: The determined severity level of an object, represented numerically, based on our risk modeling process and research, as explained in our Threat Assessment Criteria.
Infected Computers: The number of confirmed and suspected cases of a particular threat detected on infected computers as reported by SpyHunter.

Videobonus.biz exists for the sole reason of delivering unwanted and intrusive advertisements to users. Indeed, the page has no useful content for its visitors. On the contrary, it tries to lure them into enabling its push notifications through various deceptive messages. It should be noted that Videobonus.biz is not an isolated occurrence, as there are countless dubious pages that operate in virtually the same manner.
When users land on one of these sites, they would typically be greeted by an image of a robot and a message similar to:
'Press Allow to verify that you are not a robot!'
The implication is clear - the site is pretending to be doing a CAPTCHA check. Other misleading scenarios include pretending that a video is encountering playback issues that can be solved by pressing 'Allow' or the button will allow users to download a file. No matter the theme of the messages, they will all direct users into clicking on 'Allow,' as that will enable the sites' push notifications.
Afterward, Videobonus.biz will most likely start generating suspicious advertisements promoting other untrustworthy destinations, such as fake giveaways, shady adult-oriented platforms, or seemingly useful applications that turn out to be annoying PUPs (Potentially Unwanted Programs).
