When you see Allow-youtube.com advertisements on your computer originating from Allow-youtube.com? These ads are push notifications and you have accepted them from malicious websites such as Allow-youtube.com.
Push notifications are alerts that are shown through your web browser settings. Malicious websites similar to Allow-youtube.com try to persuade into a click on the allow button in your browser.
Allow-youtube.com website displays announcements such as “click allow to continue,” “click to verify if you are not a robot” or “click allow to download the file.” The alert is a social engineering trick and is only abused to trick you.
If you have accepted the notifications, advertisements are shown that will try to make you click on the ad again. If you click on the announcement, the browser will open and redirect you to a dangerous website. These ads are associated with adware.
Adware is software specifically designed to steal browser data from your computer.
This web browsing data is eventually sold by cybercriminals to make money from it.
If you see the Allow-youtube.com pop-ups in your browser, I recommend that you remove the notifications by Allow-youtube.com to prevent further malware infections.
