Once your computer gets infected, the web pages you visit are going to fill up with a ton of offers and advertisements. The official website of Offers Wizard leads one to think that it’s a useful tool that helps its users save money with the promotional codes it provides. However, none of it holds up: these codes and coupons are fake. OffersWizard uses these ads to get you to click on them.
The majority of advertisements displayed by OffersWizard are sponsored links. The authors of this adware program make money each time you click on them. Also be aware that it’s possible to end up contaminated by other viruses by clicking on these ads because OffersWizard ads can actually redirect you to malicious websites.
