Captchasafe.top Attempts Ad Spam Through Fake Anti-Bot Check

CVE-2017-11882 Spam Campaign

Captchasafe.top is a website that our team came across while investigating suspicious advertising networks. This website aims to deceive users into subscribing to its notifications, which can lead to the redirection of visitors to similar pages. However, users hardly visit such pages intentionally.

To trick visitors into accepting its notifications, captchasafe.top uses a deceptive technique that prompts users to solve a fake CAPTCHA by clicking the "Allow" button. These notifications are risky and may take users to harmful websites and applications.

Upon examining the notifications sent by captchasafe.top, we found out that many of them falsely claim that the computer is infected with viruses. If users click on these notifications, they can be taken to technical support scams, phishing pages, dubious applications hosting websites, and other unsafe content.

Trusting notifications from captchasafe.top can result in financial losses, theft of personal information, and malware installation on computers. It may even lead to the compromise of entire systems, causing users to become victims of cybercrimes such as identity theft.

We advise visitors not to authorize the receipt of notifications from captchasafe.top. Additionally, visitors should not trust pages that are similar to captchasafe.top because they can redirect them to other unreliable sites.

Why Should You Never Click 'Allow' on Unfamiliar Pages?

Clicking 'Allow' on unfamiliar pages can be dangerous because it grants the website permission to send notifications to your device. These notifications can be used to display misleading or harmful messages, redirect you to dangerous websites, or even download malware onto your device without your knowledge or consent.

In addition, some websites may use these notifications to collect your personal information, which can then be sold or used for malicious purposes. It is always best to only allow notifications from trusted websites and to be cautious when visiting unfamiliar pages.
