Llsap.xyz ads (fake) - Chrome, Firefox, IE, Edge

What is Llsap.xyz ads?

Llsap.xyz is a scam website you should never trust

Llsap.xyz is a malicious website that redirects to suspicious places and asks to enable notifications

Users are unlikely to encounter Llsap.xyz intentionally while browsing the web on Google Chrome, MS Edge, or any other browser. Instead, they are commonly redirected after they click a link on an insecure website or are rerouted by automatic scripts until they reach the landing page. This is where the scam begins.

After entering the site, users are presented with a fake message and a picture, which is meant to convince users that the notifications should be allowed. The developers of the scam come up with various reasons why this should be done, for example, they say that visitors have to pass the human verification feature, similar to captcha and that pressing the “Allow” button would do just that.

As evident, it is all untrue, and as soon as users oblige and click the requested button, they allow Llsap.xyz to deliver information to users' desktops at any time. This does not start until sometime later, which makes users confused once they see pop-ups that come on top of all the other apps. Likewise, it does not matter which website users are visiting at the time, the ads would be shown anyways.

The unfortunate side of this phenomenon is that the links shown within these push notifications can lead to all sorts of insecure websites, where users could be tricked into providing their personal information, subscribe to useless services, or install potentially unwanted or even malicious software.

For this reason, we strongly recommend you not click on any of the ads shown to you. Instead, you can refer to the instructions below to stop the push notifications from Llsap.xyz once and for all. Additionally, we strongly recommend checking the device for adware,^[1] as redirects to suspicious websites and increased ad activity could be a sign of its presence.

As already mentioned, users would never type in the web address of the site to enter it, so it never happens on purpose. The clicks on links and ads are one of the main reasons for redirects to Llsap.xyz, although automatic rerouting can also be the reason for this issue. Likewise, some websites even employ a deceptive method where even clicks on seemingly empty space would result in the opening of another tab or redirect to insecure websites.

This behavior can be greatly diminished by avoiding websites of dubious content, such as torrents, gambling, illegal video streaming, and similar. Unfortunately, this might not always work, so it is best to employ automatic tools that could help in that regard, e.g., ad-blocking extensions could be useful, although they have their downfalls too (they might break some websites or prevent content creators from monetizing).

Another reason for unexpected redirects is adware – a type of potentially unwanted software that is commonly used to insert pop-ups, banners, auto-play, in-text links, and other types of ads into various websites. These ads do not originate from the visited websites themselves and can open tabs of windows automatically. There is no doubt that many users could confuse push notifications with this behavior.

Redirects to Llsap.xyz might be related to adware infection

Thus, before you proceed with Llsap.xyz removal, you should first ensure that your system is clear from adware and malware. The easiest and most efficient way to do that is by employing SpyHunter 5Combo Cleaner, Malwarebytes, or another security software. Browser cleaning should also be performed, as PUPs commonly leave settings and leftover items such as cookies behind.

For that, you could refer to the instructions at the bottom of this post or employ FortectIntego to do it for you. The app can also fix virus damage and replace damaged system files automatically, saving users from crashes, BSODs, errors, and other computer issues.

Push notifications removal

Essentially, if you see Llsap.xyz notifications showing up on your screen regularly, it does not mean that your system is infected, as adware/malware is not the cause for this problem, and is not related to the activity directly. The push notification feature is legitimate and used by many websites and users who would like to receive relevant information from those.

Unfortunately, crooks abuse it to send users ads and misinformation about their computer health or other topics that could be attractive to people. Clicking on links provided by the site is dangerous, so you should avoid them at all costs. Instead, proceed with the instructions below to remove the unwanted notifications.

Google Chrome (desktop):

1. Open Google Chrome browser and go to Menu > Settings.
2. Scroll down and click on Advanced.
3. Locate the Privacy and security section and pick Site Settings > Notifications.
4. Look at the Allow section and look for a suspicious URL.
5. Click the three vertical dots next to it and pick Block. This should remove unwanted notifications from Google Chrome.

Google Chrome (Android):

• Open Google Chrome and tap on Settings (three vertical dots).
• Select Notifications.
• Scroll down to the Sites section.
• Locate the unwanted URL and toggle the button to the left (Off setting).

Mozilla Firefox:

1. Open Mozilla Firefox and go to Menu > Options.
2. Click on Privacy & Security section.
3. Under Permissions, you should be able to see Notifications. Click the Settings button next to it.
4. In the Settings – Notification Permissions window, click on the drop-down menu by the URL in question.
5. Select Block and then click on Save Changes. This should remove unwanted notifications from Mozilla Firefox.

MS Edge (Chromium):

1. Open Microsoft Edge, and go to Settings.
2. Select Site permissions.
3. Go to Notifications on the right.
4. Under Allow, you will find the unwanted entry.
5. Click on More actions and select Block.

Safari:

1. Click on Safari > Preferences…
2. Go to the Websites tab and, under General, select Notifications.
3. Select the web address in question, click the drop-down menu and select Deny.

You can use these instructions to block any other website to show you notifications in the future. Thus, if you allow notifications from a suspicious website by accident, you can easily revert this decision by accessing the settings section fo your browser.

How to avoid being scammed

Security experts^[2] have always been warning users that they should be very careful when browsing the web, installing programs, opening emails, or performing other activities related to the internet connection. While tech giants and regulatory bodies are trying to reduce the probability of users having to face malicious content online, there are always going to be some nasties around, and being careful goes a long way.

Unfortunately, some users are unaware of how cybercriminals operate their scams, phishing^[3] attempts, malware, and similar malicious businesses. In other cases, people are oblivious to the dangers of the world wide web and all related to it, and deliberately browse websites that could result in malware infection or even worse consequences.

Regardless of which group of people you belong to, you should always take precautions when dealing with online content. Here are a few tips that could help you in the future:

• Always have a reputable anti-malware, running in the background – it could stop the intrusion of even the most dangerous parasites;
• When installing new software from the internet, always pay attention to the installation instructions – watch out for pre-ticked checkboxes, fine print text, misleading offers, or misplaced buttons and always choose the Advanced settings instead of Recommended one to stay in control of what is being installed on your system;
• Avoid websites of dubious origin; it includes gambling, software cracks, porn, illegal video streaming, and similar high-risk places that could easily result in malware infections;
• Employ strong passwords for all your accounts and never reuse them;
• Use ad-blockers but don't forget to add exclusions for websites you want to support;
• Always check the web address of the website you are visiting, especially if it claims that your computer is infected or that you need to download some type of update.

Finally, keep in mind that the “Allow” button within the notification prompt always does the same thing – it allows notification to be shown from the site you are currently visiting. Disregard whatever the website claims at all times and simply leave it immediately. Only subscribe to notifications from websites you trust.
