Gretaith.com is a website, which you may stumble upon while browsing low-quality sites that have been promoted to display advertisements hosted on Gretaith.com. This is not a worrisome issue since the advertisements in question can be closed. However, some users might fall for the social engineering tricks that the authors of the Gretaith.com page are known to use to gain special permissions – for example, Gretaith.com ask the user to enable the website to display notifications to view the embed content (a song or a video.) If the permission is given, Gretaith.com may proceed to display the embed media content, but it also will use its newly gained permissions to provide a constant influx of browser notifications that promote all sorts of content.

It is unlikely that Gretaith.com's presence in your Web browser is caused by a suspicious program being present on your computer. This is important to know since it means that you do not have to worry about any shady software being responsible for the notifications and redirects that Gretaith.com is known for.

The content that Gretaith.com's notifications promote may vary – the advertisements are likely to ask the user to subscribe to affiliated services, purchase software, etc. It is possible that the notifications also may be used to promote fake raffles or online tactics that aim to get users to provide information. It is recommended to ignore offers from unknown websites.

Disposing of Gretaith.com's notifications from your Web browser may require you to tinker with the browser's configuration to revoke the permissions given to Gretaith.com.
