How to Avoid Advertismentzone.com Ad Pop-Ups
Advertismentzone dot com is a website that displays one of the common fake bot checks that are used by deceptive websites to lure visitors into allowing push notifications and pop-up advertisements in their browser.
When you somehow land on Advertismentzone dot com, either through clicking an ad banner on a different website or using a dubious free file hosting service, you will be greeted with a default browser pop-up box asking you to allow notifications. Of course, allowing push notifications has nothing to do with any normal, legitimate anti-bot check. However, the site attempts to disguise this as an anti-bot check process. It even displays the image of a cute robot and has a fake "e-captcha" logo on the page.
Clicking "allow" will only lead to your browser starting to randomly display intrusive pop-up ads which will both diminish your browsing experience and may potentially expose you to content, links, and ads that lead to malicious websites. Websites like Advertismentzone dot com often collaborate with rogue advertising networks that serve questionable ads and link to pages that may harm your system or put you in danger of credential theft.
The wisest thing to do if you do run into a similar page, trying to mask allowing notifications as an anti-bot check, is to simply close the browser tab immediately and never interact with any element on the page. This is the best option if you want to stay safe and don't expose your browser to intrusive and potentially harmful ads.
