What is News-bohima.cc ads?

News-bohima.cc makes users subscribe to notifications thanks to its misleading messages

News-bohima.cc is a fake website with no content on it

While ads embedded in various websites can be avoided in numerous ways, users reported that News-bohima.cc pop-ups are something that they have been trying to get rid of without success for a while now. These intrusive notifications usually show up at the bottom-right corner of a Windows computer, while Mac users typically see them at the top-right.

The activity also doesn't seem to be triggered by any actions that users are currently undertaking, as long as Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, MS Edge, or another used browser is being used or is running in the background. It is also pretty annoying that News-bohima.cc push notifications are shown on top of other apps, hence users might even be taken out of the full-screen mode when watching a video or playing a game.

Even though many users associate this behavior with a virus, it is not the case, as the issue lies within the permission given to the site to show notifications. The feature itself, which is available on all modern browsers, can't be removed per se (although it can be toned down to the point where notification prompts would not be shown at all), but the permission to show notification can – it is actually quite easy to do.

However, the possibility of infection can't be dismissed entirely, as users who commonly encounter an increased number of ads, redirects, and scam websites are likely to be affected by adware^[1] or even malware. Therefore, you should always make appropriate checks when dealing with problems like these.

In most cases, users do not venture to websites considered to be high-risk on purpose, as they wouldn't want to compromise their online safety. There are always exceptions to this rule, however, as plenty of people are willing to risk it for some type of benefit they would receive.

One of the best examples is pirated software that users download from insecure places such as Pirate Bay. Not only can original websites contain booby-trapped torrents but fake versions are often created by cybercriminals to display malicious ads to users or ask them for their sensitive information. Likewise, such sites often contain fake download links that would redirect them to News-bohima.cc, Thecred.info, Eushop.digital, or similar scam websites.

Thus, if you want to reduce the risk of dangerous infections such as ransomware, please stay away from torrents. Likewise, other dishonorable mentions include gambling, X-rated, illegal video streaming, YouTube video download, shady online gaming, and similar websites. Employing ad-blockers can reduce the chance of certain infections and redirects, although there is never a 100% method to be fully protected, so please take precautions.

Once users are diverted to News-bohima.cc scam site, they are usually taken by surprise, as they are asked to press the allow button within the notification prompt. The reason for that gives almost never correlates with what it actually does (the browser used can also enhance this effect); allegedly, users would be granted access to some video or other content seemingly present on the site.

The main goal of News-bohima.cc is to make people click the "Allow" button so that ads could later be delivered to them

This is not true, however, as there is no content present on the site – it is fake. The main goal of crooks behind it is to make people subscribe to push notifications so that intrusive ads can later be delivered through them. Since many people are tricked into accepting the offer to enable push notifications, they can't connect the dots and don't understand where the activity is coming from. Luckily, as long as the promoted ads are not clicked, their removal is not difficult as long as you know where to look.

Additional useful security tips

Once you are done with removing the News-bohima.cc notifications, most of your inconveniences are likely to be gone by now. With the permissions disabled, the website can no longer send information to you – this rule applies to every other website on the internet. Thus, if you come across a similar problem, remember that you can disable push notifications via browser settings. If you are one of the people who would rather not see requests in the first place, you can easily do that by changing the site settings of the browser.

• On Google Chrome, go to Menu > Settings
• Select Privacy and security on the left
• Go to Site Settings and select Notifications
• Here, pick Use quieter messaging or Don't allow sites to send notifications.

It is important to note that adware or malware could be the very reason you came across a malicious website in the first place. Adware is a type of potentially unwanted software that can be found almost everywhere on the internet, although most users don't install it intentionally but are rather tricked by software bundling^[3] or similar distribution methods.

In order to effectively check your system for infections, you should employ SpyHunter 5Combo Cleaner or Malwarebytes and perform a full system scan with it. Security software is a perfect tool that not only can find and remove all the malicious and suspicious components but also serves as your first line of defense against incoming infections.

If you do find any malicious software that needed to be removed by anti-malware, you should employ FortectIntego afterward to fix any inconsistencies or system damage that could have occurred due to the infection. Likewise, cookies and other web data should be eliminated in order to prevent further tracking by third parties. We also provide manual instructions for all these steps below.
