Gamblingday.xyz is a misleading page that uses a new trick to hijack the browser's notifications. Whenever a user lands on Gamblingday.xyz, they will be told that their browser cannot play a specific video because it has been configured to block video auto-play. According to Gamblingday.xyz's message, users can change this by pressing the 'Allow' button shown on top of their screen. However, the prompt linked to the 'Allow' button serves a different purpose – it enables Gamblingday.xyz's notifications.

Once subscribed to the Gamblingday.xyz notifications, users may begin to see dozens of this website's advertisements whenever they try to browse the Web. The notifications of this page will appear all the time, and they may often appear on top of important sections of the website you are browsing currently. Needless to say, the behavior of the Gamblingday.xyz notifications is very intrusive, and they should be removed as soon as possible.

Stopping unwanted notifications from bothering you while you browse the Internet requires making a small change to your browser's configuration. Go to your browser's settings, and make sure that Gamblingday.xyz's ability to display notifications is set to 'Blocked.'
