Why are these ads dangerous?

Shopping Deals is a malicious browser add-on that claims to assist you with your online shopping. Supposedly, the tool provides you with invaluable information regarding the best deals and bargains you can find on the web. Also, it gives you coupons for various sales you can take advantage of. And, this is where reality sets in. To make use of all of these fantastic-sounding offers, you have to press the program’s pop-ups because that’s how it displays this fabulous, money-saving information. It’s strongly recommended NOT to do that. If you click on even a single one of the pop-up advertisements, the program will continuously flood you with every time you try to surf the web, you’ll severely regret it. Why? Well, because they’re immensely unreliable. The ads are bundled with all sorts of malware. Malware, which you unknowingly agree to install on your PC by pressing the pop-up it’s using as a shield to hide behind. So, the more ads you press, the more malicious tools you’ll get stuck with. How long do you suppose your system will manage to keep it together before it gives in under the pressure of the never-ending waterfall of issues? It will hardly take long. This renders the ‘money-saving’ advertisements utterly useless. But as grave as the danger they pose is, it still pales in comparison to the even worse danger Shopping Deals places upon you. The application jeopardizes your personal and financial details as it spies on you. The PUP monitors your browsing activities and keeps a thorough record of every move you make online. When it determines it has gathered a sufficient amount of data from you, guess what it does next? The adware sends the collected information to the unknown third parties that support it. After these strangers have it, they can do with it whatever they so wish, and you can’t stop them. Do you think that’s a risk worth taking for such a worthless program? Think long and hard before you answer that question as both your and your system’s fate rest on your reply.
