Remove Captcha-bros.com Notifications and Pop-Ups

adware popups

Captcha-bros.com is a bogus website, which users may see in their Web browser while visiting low-quality sites. The purpose of Captcha-bros.com is to trick users into subscribing to its notifications. The authors of this website want to do this in order to get the ability to spam the user with ads. Hijacking browser notifications is a relatively new trend among online con artists and, unfortunately, it may be very profitable. If Captcha-bros.com hijacks your browser notifications, you will end up seeing dozens of ads from this page.

How does the Captcha-bros.com hijack happen?

Users stumble upon this website when browsing pirated content, adult videos, illegal streams, etc. Captcha-bros.com tells users that they need to press 'Allow' to either:

  • Play a video.
  • Enable media playback.
  • Confirm their request to download a file.
  • Confirm they are not a robot (CAPTCHA check.)

However, all of Captcha-bros.com's messages are fake. If you follow the website's instructions, you will subscribe to the notifications. After this, the website will start to use this browser feature to spam you with ads. You may see the Captcha-bros.com notifications regardless if your browser is running or not. Thankfully, there is a simple fix to this annoying problem – repair your browser settings.

The instructions are different for every Web browser, so you should refer to our post on how to stop annoying notifications in Web browsers. There, you will find details on how to accomplish the task on different browsers. To avoid such issues in the future, remember not to blindly follow the instructions of random sites. Browser notification hijacking is becoming increasingly popular, and you are more than likely to encounter sites like Captcha-bros.com.
