The Video-watch1.com page has been confirmed to be yet another untrustworthy site running online tactics. Users who encounter the site should exercise caution, as they may be shown various, misleading or fabricated messages. The site is likely to try and exploit the legitimate push notifications browser feature.

By utilizing fake scenarios and deceptive messages, Video-watch1.com will try to lure visitors into unknowingly subscribing to its notifications. The exact scenario could vary, though. Many rogue websites are capable of adjusting their behavior based on users' specific IP addresses/geolocations.

One of the confirmed misleading scenarios sees Video-watch1.com claiming that its visitors must pass a CAPTCHA check. The implication is that this is the only way to gain access to the supposed content on the site. The message found on the page could be similar to:

'Press 'Allow' to verify, that you are not robot'

Simply following the instructions and clicking the button will often result in forced redirects to even more questionable destinations. This is exactly what cybersecurity researchers have confirmed to take place on Video-watch1.com - clicking 'Allow' causes a redirect to a practically identical rogue site at 'musicinmysoul.biz.' In addition, Video-watch1.com will abuse the browser permissions it has received to deliver unwanted advertisements to users. The advertisements generated by such unproven sources are likely to promote even more deceiving sites, shady adult pages, suspicious online gaming/betting platforms and more.
