Creditcable.info

Posted: January 17, 2020

Creditcable.info is a dodgy website designed to hijack your Web browser's ability to display notifications, and then use this feature to flood you with advertisements for various products, services, websites, blogs, and other content that you might not be interested in. You are likely to encounter the Creditcable.info's fraudulent pop-ups while browsing dodgy websites such as the ones linked to the distribution of torrents, pirated media, pirated software, etc. The Creditcable.info may use different tricks to get users to allow the page to display notifications. It may:

  • Tell the users that they need to click 'Allow' to complete the download they requested.
  • Tell the users that they need to click 'Allow' to view embedded media.
  • Ask you to click 'Allow' to pass a CAPTCHA check.

Allowing Creditcable.info to display notifications is not a major security concern since the website will not be able to have access to any of your Web browser's other features. However, it may display advertisements for as long as it has the ability to display notifications – these advertisements also may bother you while your Web browser is closed, so getting rid of them should be your top priority.

To ensure that Creditcable.info will not spam you with advertisements any longer, you should navigate to your Web browser's 'Privacy' settings and revoke Creditcable.info's ability to use notifications. To prevent such a nuisance from occurring in the future, we advise you only to allow trustworthy websites to display notifications – if a page tells you that it is mandatory to allow notifications to view content, then it is very likely to use these permissions to flood you with advertisements.
