The truth is that this program harms you so much more than help you. Yes, it does, in fact, provide you with coupons and news of deals and bargains. But it’s utterly useless to you. Why? Well, because the tool gives you this information via its incessant pop-ups, and to take advantage of it, you’d have to click on them. That would be a grave mistake. The program’s pop-ups are immensely unreliable. Even a single click on a single ad inevitably leads to more unwanted malware slithering its way into your system.
