In-page-push.com pop-up ads Removal Guide

What is In-page-push.com pop-up ads?

Having In-page-push.com can give you headaches

In-page-push.comIn-page-push.com is a fake website created to generate revenue from pay-per-click advertising

Push notification spam is a growing problem on the internet. Websites designed for the sole purpose of sending ads keep appearing every day. Creators generate revenue for every ad a user clicks on.[1] Advertisements sent by web pages like In-page-push.com are unsafe because they are not reviewed by anyone.

Among legitimate ads, users would receive some from shady sources. This is a potential security risk 'cause they can contain links leading to suspicious websites where users might download malicious programs or give away their personal information. For this reason, people should not keep push notifications turned on from fake websites.

Usually, people do not find this page themselves. The most common reasons why users ended up there are redirects[2] from other rogue websites or adware infection.[3] What is more, it uses social engineering tactics to trick people into allowing the notifications themselves, so after they start experiencing the symptoms, they do not know the reason behind it.

Other fake websites, just like In-page-push.com, use a few different methods that work. These sites usually have only one page and one clear message, which sounds something like “Press the “Allow” button to…” and the rest is your imagination. They can write anything after that, and it will fool careless individuals who do not read everything or do not understand what push notifications are.

NAME In-page-push.com
TYPE Push notification spam; adware
DISTRIBUTION Shady websites; freeware installations
SYMPTOMS Pop-up ads and banners start appearing even when the browser is closed
DANGERS Advertisements can lead to dangerous websites where people can give out their personal information or download malicious software
ELIMINATION Manual removal can be accomplished via browser settings
FURTHER STEPS It is a good idea to use a maintenance tool like FortectIntego to get rid of any damage left completely

As people spend more and more time on their devices, online sales have increased dramatically, especially since the pandemic started. But along with that came an opportunity for individuals who want to exploit that. Online scams and cyber attacks have also been on the rise, so there are two sides to this digital world we live in.

As we said before, fake websites go extinct after exposure, new ones replace them every day, and there does not seem to be an end to this activity soon as they are so easily produced.

Ways people get wrapped up in spam

Social engineering is used to manipulate people by praying on human vulnerabilities. In-page-push.com and websites just like it use fake captcha verifications, images of loading screens, files waiting for download to trick them into clicking the “Allow” button. A constant urge to rush in this fast-paced life makes them blind to the obvious – all of it is fake.

A special example of how smoothly this operation can work are illegal streaming sites because they are filled with redirects and deceptive ads. Very often, when people want to watch a movie or TV show for free, they end up on sites like 123movies.co and Movie4k.to. Next to the video screen, buttons can appear saying “Download now.” But they are not real. These are ads that redirect you to another page. If that site says, “Your download is ready, click “Allow” to download your file,” they got you.

Without realizing that they clicked on an ad that opened a completely unrelated page, users click the button. Of course, they do not receive any files or additional content. Confused, they probably close that window and proceed searching for other ways to get what they want.

The problem then can deepen further as they start receiving commercial content from unknown sources. They will be met with more deceptive ads trying to lure them in.

Online scams

Fake errors, flash player updates, safety warnings, lottery winnings, surveys are all created to either take your information from you or make you download potentially unwanted programs, malware. The individuals that usually fall for these are not particularly technologically savvy people.

Flash player has been extinct since 2020 and was replaced by HTML5[4] (or other modern technologies) because of its many flaws and vulnerabilities. So you should never believe it if a website is telling you your Flash Player is out of date or that you do not have it and need to download it.

Warnings about your personal information being in danger are also most certainly not real. They work so well because they show your already publicly available information like location and IP address to scare you into downloading possibly malicious software that is supposedly will protect you.

Sorry to disappoint; you will never be the lucky visitor who made the 9.68-billionth search. Giant companies like Google, Microsoft, or Apple do not pick random people on the internet to be gifted with new iPhones, computers, or cash prizes just because. Although sometimes scams like this say you need to complete a survey to receive it. Know that if it seems too good to be true, it probably is.

It is best to use professional security software like SpyHunter 5Combo Cleaner or Malwarebytes, which can scan your system, locate and eliminate them automatically. They can also prevent such installations in the future by warning you about suspicious-looking programs. If you still want to proceed with manual removal, you can do so by following our step-by-step guide below for macOS and Windows systems.

How to prevent from getting adware

Protect your privacy – employ a VPN

There are several ways how to make your online time more private – you can access an incognito tab. However, there is no secret that even in this mode, you are tracked for advertising purposes. There is a way to add an extra layer of protection and create a completely anonymous web browsing practice with the help of Private Internet Access VPN. This software reroutes traffic through different servers, thus leaving your IP address and geolocation in disguise. Besides, it is based on a strict no-log policy, meaning that no data will be recorded, leaked, and available for both first and third parties. The combination of a secure web browser and Private Internet Access VPN will let you browse the Internet without a feeling of being spied or targeted by criminals. 

No backups? No problem. Use a data recovery tool

If you wonder how data loss can occur, you should not look any further for answers – human errors, malware attacks, hardware failures, power cuts, natural disasters, or even simple negligence. In some cases, lost files are extremely important, and many straight out panic when such an unfortunate course of events happen. Due to this, you should always ensure that you prepare proper data backups on a regular basis.

If you were caught by surprise and did not have any backups to restore your files from, not everything is lost. Data Recovery Pro is one of the leading file recovery solutions you can find on the market – it is likely to restore even lost emails or data located on an external device.
