Posted: June 17, 2020

Eristian.com is a website that tries to hijack your Web browser notifications by exposing you to misleading instructions and pop-ups. The goal of Eristian.com is to convince visitors to click the 'Allow' button to confirm that they are a real person and not a robot – the catch is that the button in question is meant to provide Eristian.com with permissions to use browser notifications. You are unlikely to notice anything out of the ordinary if you click the 'Allow' button because it may take Eristian.com a few minutes to get to work. However, as soon as Eristian.com starts showing notifications in your Web browser, you are likely to stop enjoying your Web browsing sessions that much – this is because the notifications will appear all the time, and their contents often may promote shady sites, services, and products that you should not interact with.

Websites like Eristian.com have turned out to be a very profitable venture for con artists since they can bring their advertisements to thousands of people, and increase the ad revenue they generate drastically. It is advisable to stop the notifications from appearing by using your browser's site settings to remove permissions given to this website.
