from the article…these should be a Red Flag…
“But rather than simply checking a box and/or selecting images, the page will ask users to take additional steps, like clicking “Allow” on a browser notification request, or copying and pasting a command into their system.”
“Clicking “Allow” can inundate the user’s device with scam notifications, such as fake virus alerts, phishing links or fraudulent offers. In some cases, following the instructions can lead to the installation of malicious software.”
