Con artists have started using fake websites recently, which are designed to execute one task – hijack your Web browser's push notifications and then abuse the feature to deliver unwanted advertisements. One of the websites linked to such a tactic can be found on Aminedreg.info, and it tries to trick you into granting it the necessary permission by telling visitors to click 'Allow' to confirm that they are not a robot. However, the 'Allow' button that Aminedreg.info hosts is not linked to an anti-robot check – instead, it is your Web browser prompting you to enable Aminedreg.info's notifications. If you are not paying close attention to the on-screen instructions, you may be tricked into subscribing to Aminedreg.info's notifications unknowingly.

Thankfully, falling for the tactic on Aminedreg.info is not a security concern, but it is not a problem that should be overlooked, certainly. The notifications that this website spawns can make your Web browsing sessions very unenjoyable due to the large number of advertisements promoting shady content.

If you suspect that you might have subscribed to Aminedreg.info's notifications accidentally, then we advise you to resolve the issue as soon as possible. You can control Aminedreg.info's permission manually via your Web browser's settings menu.
