I wrote this article to help you remove Offers Chasers. This Offers Chasers removal guide works for Chrome, Firefox and Internet Explorer.

Offers Chasers is a shopping assistant. It provides help with online acquisitions by collecting deals from platforms and providing them to the user. A lot of people shop online in this day and age and the types of goods sold by digital platforms expands constantly. Offers Chasers has an official website registered to the domain offerschasers.com. There is a blue download button on the homepage but it does not work. The broken link foreshadows that there is something wrong. It has been like this for a while. Have the developers of the application stopped maintaining it? No, the issue is different and much more severe. Offers Chasers is an adware program. Its official website is just a cover-up. The download link is purposely faulty. This way, it cannot be proven that the adware is connected to the website and its developers.

The latter information begs the question as to how Offers Chasers is distributed. The answer is dark patterns. There are methods which allow a program to be installed and in certain cases downloaded without the user’s knowledge or consent. The most common way to convey a furtive program is in a bundle. The potential download clients are freeware, shareware and pirated copies of paid tools. The host will have Offers Chasers listed as a bonus app. You will have the option to install it together with the host or exclude it. Note that the default setting will be to proceed with the installation. To prevent this from happening, you will have to render the settings manually. Some wizards have the additional programs listed in the advanced or custom mode only. Go with that, rather than the basic or automatic.

The next vector from the list is spam emails. The sender attaches a file, containing a macro or a script, to the letter. The component executes the transfer of Offers Chasers. Opening the attachment is all it takes to allow the adware into your system. You should do a checkup to confirm that the message in question has been sent by a reliable person. It is commonplace for a con artist to write on behalf of an existing and reputable entity, like the national post, the local police department, the district court, a courier firm, a government branch, an institution, a social media network or a bank. This would make the email appear genuine. To proof the reliability of a given email, check the account the sender has used to contact you. The easiest way to transfer a malicious program to a computer is via a drive-by installation. Entering a compromised website would infect you on the spot, so be careful.

Offers Chasers will show you exclusive offers for a wide variety of commodities. This encompasses clothes, accessories, technological devices, furniture, decorations, gardening equipment, sports gear, games, toys and many others. The rogue tool works by generating advertisements. They are made in different shapes and sizes, including banners, in-text links, coupon boxes, freebies, rebates, floating, inline, contextual, transitional, interstitial, comparison and full-screen ads. The adware is aggressive and intrusive in its quest to attract users’ attention. This is because it depends on their predisposition. The owners of the program get paid proportionally to the number of ads people have clicked on. This monetizing technique is called the pay-per-click system. It is legal to promote third party content this way. However, there are certain regulations concerning security which Offers Chasers does not meet.

The developers of Offers Chasers have not taken the necessary precautions to make the ads safe. The program does not conduct security scans. Every paying advertisers gets to have his content featured unconditionally. The burden of the risk is assumed entirely by the end user. The registrant behind the official website of Offers Chasers has disclaimed responsibility for any security breaches which have resulted from using the software. The entity in question is a company from Limassol, Cyprus called Aztec Media, Inc. This includes data theft which we have yet to talk about. The adware monitors the browsing sessions and collects various details on people. This encompasses their history, keystrokes, cookies, IP address, geographic location, postal code, demographic profile, email, telephone number, fax, user names, passwords and financial credentials. The gathered input is sold on darknet markets.
