What is Wstep1?

Wstep1.biz bombards people with unwanted ads by tricking them into enabling browser notifications.

The site shows fake prompts like "Click Allow to verify you're not a robot" or "Click Allow to play the video". Once click "Allow", you've given this site permission to send notifications to your device.

After that, this site can floods your screen with spam advertisements all day long, even when you're not browsing. Those ads can promote suspicious dating sites, fake software updates, sketchy apps and games, questionable health products, or other unwanted services.

The notifications keep coming until you block them. Such spam bypasses most ad blockers.

As of October 7, 2025, Wstep1.biz has a very low trust score of 1/100 according to our algorithm. Through the security analysis, it has been identified as a potential browser notification spam. Our detection system has found multiple risk indicators, and we recommend avoiding this website.

Why is wstep1.biz marked "Browser Notification Spam"?

Gridinsoft evaluates wstep1.biz, focusing on domain age (only 19 days old), hidden ownership details, limited website popularity, suspicious content indicators (Blacklisted), hosting technology and infrastructure, SSL certificate status, website reputation across multiple databases. We weigh these indicators to calculate the trust score.

Domain registration occurred recently, establishing wstep1.biz as a newly created web property. New domains typically lack established reputation metrics, user reviews, or historical performance data, necessitating additional verification before engagement.
