Deceiving domain - windowsdefender.club
Windowsdefender.club is a Push Notifications virus that collects income from the ads provided. The adware tries to gather subscribers by displaying an "Allow Notifications" message which users are encouraged to interact with. However, agreeing with the upcoming ad flow will not bring you anything truly beneficial.
Adware developers often push as many advertisements as possible to earn revenue from the pay-per-click method. So, the more you click on the ads, the better the revenue will be for the third-parties. In addition, windowsdefender.club redirects might also be a problem here.
Redirecting from windowsdefender.club domain or its advertisements can come at any time during your online sessions. Redirects can take you to affiliate sources but this is not so bad regarding the fact that you might be forced to land on a webpage that includes hidden malware.
