Butiseeme.xyz ads (fake) - Free Guide

What is Butiseeme.xyz ads?

Butiseeme.xyz ads direct users to websites of dubious origin

Butiseeme.xyz shows fake messages to make users click the "Allow" button

It does not matter whether you use Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, MS Edge, or Safari – Butiseeme.xyz ads might show up at any time while on any website. Many people instantly assume that these pop-ups come from the system or a particular website, which is not the case. The activity is closely related to the push notification feature that is very commonly used by all types of websites. Unfortunately, there are many sites that exploit it for malicious purposes.

As evident, most users are tricked into subscribing to Butiseeme.xyz notifications due to various scam messages they encounter online. Redirects to such sites are a common sign of adware^[1] infection, although this might be or might not be true, so appropriate checks of the system should be made.

People are shown misleading information after being redirected – they are asked to “confirm” the site navigation, provide proof they are not robots, and many other statements like these. All of them are bogus, and users don't know that what they did was allowing the website to deliver information directly to their screens.

If you want to get rid of the annoying pop-ups that show up at random times on your screen, you came to the right place, as we provide detailed information on the scam, tips on how to recover and avoid them, and how to remove a certain website from the list which allows notifications to be shown.

Why you should check your system for adware

Let's first talk about the very roots of the scam – how people end up on the initial website. Evidently, not many users would wander around websites of dubious content intentionally, at least not on those that have no value whatsoever. Thus, most people end up on push notification scam sites by accident and are usually redirected from someplace else. It mostly happens after pressing a deceptive link or after being taken by an automatic redirection script.

To avoid this, you should consider avoiding websites that are considered insecure. For example, torrents, warez, and similar website that host illegal software installers are frequently used by malicious actors to spread malware or direct users to other malicious websites. They are used by ransomware authors as well, which can be detrimental to personal files like documents, pictures, and videos.

Since such websites are poorly regulated, it makes them perfect breeding grounds for all kinds of internet nasties. Fake “Download” buttons or booby-trapped installers could easily result in infections or redirects to sites like Butiseeme.xyz. Likewise, other high-risk content includes websites that specialize in gambling, adult-oriented, illegal video streaming, and similar material.

Another major reason why you might encounter unexpected redirects is adware – a type of software that specializes in showing users ads when browsing the internet and redirecting to predetermined websites. To make matters worse, adware is spread using deceptive methods (for example, software bundling or fake updates for Flash Player),^[2] so users are not aware that they have it installed in the first place.

The easiest way to check your device for adware and malware is to scan it with SpyHunter 5Combo Cleaner, Malwarebytes, or another powerful anti-malware software, as it can find invisible processes or files and delete them automatically. Likewise, it would be best if you also cleaned your web browsers from caches and cookies to ensure that the tracking activities are no longer taking place. You can find the instructions on how to do that below or employ FortectIntego to do it automatically.

Butiseeme.xyz does not provide any sports news

If you entered the URL of the site into the search bar, you would be met with what seems to be a rather regular website that specializes in sports. In fact, a message “Get The Latest Sports Updates From Around The World” is present right at the top of the page. In the background, the developers talk about games, a statement that kind of contradicts one another.

This happens because Butiseeme.xyz is just a mere copy of another website of the same nature – it requires no effort to produce. Regardless of this, some users might be interested and believe that they might receive sports or gaming news as soon as they press that “Allow” button.

No "sports news" are provided after notifications are allowed by visitors

However, this is not the case at all. As soon as users subscribe to notifications, nothing will happen immediately. Instead, people are likely to forget what happened and go on with their daily tasks. After some time only, they would see that their desktops are getting flooded with pop-up ads at times, which they might find weird. However, the reason this is happening is that users clicked that “Allow” button hoping for something positive from it.

Security experts^[3] strongly advise against clicking on any of the links provided within these notification prompts, as you might be redirected to vulnerable or malicious websites and get your system infected with malware or suffer from information leaks.

It is also worth mentioning that many users also encounter a completely different version of the site. After being redirected from somewhere else, you might see one of the following messages:

• Click Allow if you are not a robot
• Just one more step! “Allow” to continue
• If you are 18+ tap Allow
• Click Allow to play the video, etc.

Evidently, all of these are designed to make people click the Allow button, and there is no other purpose. The main goal of the website authors is to make users click on links they later push, be it intentionally or not, as it earns them passive income every time an ad is clicked, a website is viewed, or software is downloaded. Mind that all of these actions could be dangerous. Luckily, these annoying notifications can be stopped – follow the information in the next section.
