Variants of the 'Please press Allow to continue' scam continue to bother internet users on a daily basis. Thousands of websites host a version of this scam, and users are likely to across them while looking for pirated software/media, movie/sports streams, or other low-quality content. One of the pages hosting such deceptive pop-ups is Hilycover.top. It tells visitors that they must confirm they are not a robot before continuing further and urges them to press 'Allow' to do this. However, users who follow these instructions will end up enabling Hilycover.top's notifications in their Web browser.

While being subscribed to the Hilycover.top notifications is not harmful, it may diminish your Web browsing experience by exposing you to unwanted advertisements all the time. In addition to interrupting you regularly, these notifications will also expose you to links, which may lead to shady websites, products, and services.
