Safe & Secure

Sos-bg-sof-1.exo.io exploits browser push notification systems to deliver intrusive spam advertisements, classified as Notification Spam and Browser Hijacking.

The platform manipulates users into enabling push notifications through deceptive verification prompts such as "If you are 18+ Click The Allow Button", "Click `Allow` to play the video" or "Click Allow To Verify That You Are Not A Robot".

Enabling notifications grants Sos-bg-sof-1.exo.io permission to deliver persistent spam advertisements directly to devices, bypassing browser security controls.

Once activated, Sos-bg-sof-1.exo.io delivers continuous spam advertisements even when browsers are closed, promoting:

Adult and dating content
Freemium applications
Software update scams
Fraudulent supplements
Other suspicious products and services

By manipulating push notification permissions, Sos-bg-sof-1.exo.io bypasses traditional ad-blocking mechanisms and delivers system-wide intrusive advertisements that may contain malicious content or social engineering attacks.
