Online fraudsters continue to try and hijack the push notifications of your Web browser by using different tricks. While most con artists focused on to display fake videos and 'robot check,' a new tactic has appeared on the horizon – pages like Allmeganews.com display a fake pop-up, which tells you that you need to click 'Allow' if you want to download the file you were trying to access. This prompt is fake, and the 'Allow' button will give Allmeganews.com permission to abuse your browser's notifications.

The Allmeganews.com notifications will not contain any important or valuable content and, instead, they will focus on distributing annoying and potentially harmful advertisements – it is possible that these notifications may lead you to online tactics, fake products and other suspicious sites.

If you see Web browser notifications from an unknown website regularly, then you may have fallen for a tactic like the one found on Allmeganews.com. It is recommended to fix this issue as soon as possible by using your browser's settings menu to revoke the permissions of the website that spawns the notifications.
