    It’s a fake website, probably the result if yma search engine using bad metrics to rank websites. They want you to enable notification access. If you grant it, it’ll spam ads in your browser notifications, which is how these trash sites make money.

    Hold the back button to go back to whatever search engine results sent you down this trash page

        Notification access also allows them to show pictures, so they will show things like "you have a virus, download "totally legit antivirus " or other “warnings” disguised as windows alerts.
