What is Mnemicguaza.cam ads?

Mnemicguaza.cam is a fake website created to trick users into subscribing to notifications

Mnemicguaza.camMnemicguaza.cam pop-ups show up because users click the "Allow" button within the notification prompt

Internet is very vast. It is estimated that more than half a million websites are created every day,[1] with more than 4.5 billion users browsing them on a regular basis. When looking at numbers, it becomes clear that moderating every single website (especially considering how easy it is to create and launch one nowadays) is almost impossible. This is why scam sites, such as Mnemicguaza.cam, show up on a regular basis. The main goal is to make visitors subscribe to the notifications – there is no other purpose than that.

Crooks commonly produce these types of websites in large quantities – we have previously described Yourhotfeed.com, Offersworld4u.online, or Arfanbajt.xyz, all of which have been bugging users with intrusive pop-ups.

In most cases, users are redirected to Mnemicguaza.cam after clicking on a suspicious link somewhere else or after being rerouted by URL redirection. Alternatively, redirects on Google Chrome or another browser might be a sign of adware infection, so this possibility should not be excluded immediately.

Upon entering the site, visitors are presented with a notification prompt with two options: allow or block. If the former is selected, users would later be spammed with persistent pop-ups that show up directly on users' screens, no matter which website is being accessed via the browser at the time.

While this activity can be particularly intrusive and annoying, it is important to note that it can also be dangerous. Even accidental link clicks might lead to dangerous websites where, under particular circumstances, malware could be downloaded and installed on the system automatically.

If you were a victim of the Mnemicguaza.cam scam, you should never click on provided links and stop the unwanted notifications straight away. For that, you need to access the settings of your web browser – we explain how below.

Name Mnemicguaza.cam
Type Push notifications, ads, scam
Distribution The intrusive push notifications show up as soon as the “Allow” button is pressed within the notification prompt
Symptoms You may start seeing intrusive pop-ups on your desktop – clicking these may lead to insecure or even malicious websites
Risks Installation of potentially unwanted programs or malware, data loss, information leak, financial losses due to encountered scams
Elimination To prevent the site from displaying notifications to you, access the site permission section via your web browser settings – you can find more details below
Further steps Cleaning web browsers is just as important when dealing with potentially unwanted applications. You can do that by following the instructions below or by employing FortectIntego for an automatic fix

How the scam works

It is evident that nobody would like to be pestered by some intrusive pop-ups that show up at random times and interrupt whatever one is doing on the PC, and scam engineers are well aware of that. Therefore, they come up with various tricks that are meant to convince users that subscribing to get the notifications from Mnemicguaza.cam is something beneficial or even mandatory.

For that, website authors employ various fake messages. Some of them are designed to appeal to users who are keen on exploring certain content – such as videos or X-rated material. Here are a few examples of such messages:

  • If you are 18+, tap allow
  • Just one more step! “Allow” to continue
  • Press Allow to watch the video
  • Click “Allow” to continue streaming

Additionally, one of the most popular techniques used to trick people is by asking them to press the Allow button in order to verify that they are not robots. This is a well-known verification technique similar to captcha codes, used by most websites to prevent DDoS[2] attacks. In this case, however, it is entirely fake, and you should not oblige to this request. All in all, keep in mind that you do not need to enable notifications, provide your personal information or do similar things to access content on a legitimate website.

Mnemicguaza.cam virusYou might encounter Mnemicguaza.cam after being redirected from somewhere else

However, there is no content to explore, regardless if the Block or Allow button is pressed. In fact, most users are then redirected to a similar or even worse website when gullible people might lose money to other scams or infect their systems with malware. Thus, the best thing to do is to close down the browser tab immediately.

What are push notifications and how to remove them

In essence, when random pop-ups start showing up on your screen, you might think that your system is infected with a virus. It is not surprising, as many people through the exact same thing. While pop-up ads and push notifications might look very similar (even identical), they are not the same thing at all when it comes to their operation.

The push notification feature is a built-in API that can be used by website developers during the creation process. If selected, it will prompt a pop-up to appear as soon as a visitor enters. Nowadays, most websites employ this feature – it can no doubt be useful for both parties involved. Users might subscribe to receive the relevant information directly on their screens, which makes it much more noticeable.

Despite this, this feature was asked to be abused from the very start. Crooks realized that any type of information can be delivered through it, including links. It is not a secret that ad revenue is an easy and quick method to monetize users' clicks; while practiced widely, it becomes a malicious practice as soon as it is done without the user's consent. In this case, the consent indeed provided, although people are tricked into doing so.

In any case, if you have subscribed to notifications from a website you don't want to receive notifications from, you can easily undo this action via the website settings section. Check the information below on how to do that on every major web browser.

Besides this, we strongly recommend you check your system with SpyHunter 5Combo Cleaner, Malwarebytes, or another reputable anti-malware software. While there is no reason to believe that something malicious is installed on your device (unless you experience very distinct symptoms, such as system crashes or overall strange behavior), it is always to be safe rather than sorry. Besides, adware and similar potentially unwanted programs might be pretty sneaky regarding their distribution methods, so you might not even know you have them installed.

If security software indeed finds something suspicious, you should immediately initiate a removal process. Once done, make sure you have your browser caches,[3] cookies, and other web data cleaned, and damage repaired automatically with FortectIntego.

How to prevent from getting adware

Choose a proper web browser and improve your safety with a VPN tool

Online spying has got momentum in recent years and people are getting more and more interested in how to protect their privacy online. One of the basic means to add a layer of security – choose the most private and secure web browser. Although web browsers can't grant full privacy protection and security, some of them are much better at sandboxing, HTTPS upgrading, active content blocking, tracking blocking, phishing protection, and similar privacy-oriented features. However, if you want true anonymity, we suggest you employ a powerful Private Internet Access VPN – it can encrypt all the traffic that comes and goes out of your computer, preventing tracking completely.

 

Lost your files? Use data recovery software

While some files located on any computer are replaceable or useless, others can be extremely valuable. Family photos, work documents, school projects – these are types of files that we don't want to lose. Unfortunately, there are many ways how unexpected data loss can occur: power cuts, Blue Screen of Death errors, hardware failures, crypto-malware attack, or even accidental deletion.

To ensure that all the files remain intact, you should prepare regular data backups. You can choose cloud-based or physical copies you could restore from later in case of a disaster. If your backups were lost as well or you never bothered to prepare any, Data Recovery Pro can be your only hope to retrieve your invaluable files.
