Bundesliga-streams.net

Posted: November 11, 2019

Bundesliga-streams.net is a website that users may come across to via unwelcomed advertisements, or when they are searching for illicit streams of football matches from the German Bundesliga. Participating in the latter activity is not recommended certainly since watching pirated content is not legal, and, in addition to this, websites that host pirated streams may often be used for malvertising campaigns or to deliver advertisements that promote questionable Web destinations and downloads.

Some of the social engineering tricks that the Bundesliga-streams.net website and similar pages may use to get their users to perform certain actions are:

  • The Bundesliga-streams.net website may tell visitors that they need to download a particular media player or codec pack to view the stream – a fake warning whose purpose is to get users to download a Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP) or a potentially harmful file.
  • Users of Bundesliga-streams.net may be asked to allow the website to display notifications – if permission is given, Bundesliga-streams.net may proceed to spam the user's Web browser with advertisements via the notification bar.
  • Visitors of Bundesliga-streams.net may be exposed to tons of advertisements and pop-ups that promote gambling, adult content, fake raffles and even technical support scams.

If you come across the Bundesliga-streams.net page during your Web browsing sessions, you should leave the page and decline all its prompts and offers immediately.
