Deceiving domain - Balanceforsun.com

Balanceforsun.com is a website that abuses a legitimate web browser notification feature - it prompts users to click the "Allow" button upon the entry of the site. In most cases, users are tricked into doing so, as a fraudulent message on the background of the site claims that they need to verify they are not a robot, or that some underlying content will be displayed as soon as allow Balanceforsun.com notifications.

In case the notifications are allowed, users will be spammed with clickbait and other malicious notifications that will appear on the desktop, and the only way to stop these ads is by accessing the web browser settings and removing the Balanceforsun.com from the "allowed" list. Unfortunately, many users are unaware they can disable these notifications in such a way, and that is precisely what threat actors behind the site are counting on.
