Where do 'System Warning Alert' Pop-Ups come from?
Redirection to the website that shows 'System Warning Alert' Pop-Ups (professionalizing.space) could be sudden. You might think that your antimalware tool or your system redirected you to it based on what the fake alert says. However, our researchers at Anti-spyware-101.com say that usually users end up on scam websites because they click questionable pop-ups, advertisements, or links. Thus, to avoid scam sites and false messages, we advise you not to interact with content that could result in redirection if you are not entirely sure that it is safe to do so. Also, it would be a good idea to keep your browser up to date and get a legitimate antimalware tool as doing these things can help you stay away from unreliable as well as malicious content.
How do 'System Warning Alert' Pop-Ups work?
'System Warning Alert' Pop-Ups should show up soon after a user gets redirected to the earlier mentioned scam website. They should claim that there has been an error and that you should not ignore the pop-ups. Also, the fake alerts should say that your computer detected “pornographic spyware and virus.” It should seem odd the so-called system alerts do not mention the names of the identified malicious applications and, most importantly, their locations on your computer like legitimate antimalware tools do.
Furthermore, 'System Warning Alert' Pop-Ups might also claim that attackers are steeling your Facebook login credentials, credit card details, and other sensitive information. What should seem most unusual that the fake alerts ask to call some expert engineers. The notes should say that you can do so by dialing +1-888-696-4599. This should raise suspicion because system alerts never ask to contact technical support, especially via telephone. If your system or your antimalware tool detects malware, you should be given options like quarantine threats or eliminate them.
If you call scammers, they might try to convince you to pay for their services or lure sensitive information from you that they could sell or use in other scams. Thus, we highly recommend getting rid of 'System Warning Alert' Pop-Ups if you encounter them instead of doing what they tell.
