it also kept redirecting to itself like twice a second to not let me go back.

    Never allow “Send notification” permission for “Bot verification purposes”. I heard a new type of fake “Captcha” where you need to execute a script ( with Windows + R and then pressing enter ) that will just execute a script and run malware.

      Yeah, I saw that one. Actually kind of a smart idea as many people will surely blindly press the keys as instructed.

      Never allow “Send notification” permission for “Bot verification purposes”.

      Or for any other reason, either.

      Not even my bank or other places I trust get to send me push notifications in the wenmb browser.

      If you really need to get my attention, and if I have explicitly allowed it , then send me an email.
