What is Buzzdeal?

Buzzdeal is a new extension that promises to display all the best deals for users in order to help them save money at different online stores. The extension even claims to be the “best shopping helper,” so it is not very surprising that 194, 866 users have already installed it from the Chrome Web Store. Yes, the extension seems to be completely reliable because it is available at the official Chrome store; however, nobody knows that it is available for download on other questionable third-party web pages, for instance, buzzdeal.club/lp/index-extlp.html as well. Actually, it is not very important whether you have downloaded this software from the Chrome Web Store or another source, we still suggest removing Buzzdeal from the system. We are sure that you will know everything about the deletion of suspicious extensions after reading through this report prepared by specialists working at anti-spyware-101.com. test test test

What does Buzzdeal do?

Buzzdeal should help users save money at online stores by providing the hottest available deals. Even though it really seems to be ready to serve users, we are 99% sure that it will not display you useful deals, but will simply show advertisements leading to third-party websites. Actually, we believe that the main goal of this extension is to boost the traffic rate to other websites, so you should not expect that it will really help you to save money. What’s more, there is a small possibility that this extension will ruin your browsing activities with its advertisements (they will have the label Ads by BuzzDeals). In addition, advertisements contain links leading to third-party web pages, which means that you will immediately be taken to a third-party web page after clicking on any of those advertisements. Believe us; Buzzdeal does not care about your safety at all, which means that you might even end up on the website full of malicious software. You are the one who can decide whether to risk infecting the system with malware or not but you should know that specialists suggest removing the extension as soon as possible. In most cases, the extension is added to the Google Chrome browser only; however, users sometimes notice the Buzzdeal extension on Mozilla Firefox and Internet Explorer browsers as well. Make sure you eliminate it from all the browsers installed on your computer.

We suggest that you delete Buzzdeal from your browsers not only because its ads will redirect you to similardeals.net, fr.foxydeal.com, and other untrustworthy web pages, but also because it is very likely that this extension will gather information about users’ browsing data in order to be able to display relevant ads. Buzzdeal does not differ much from other existing ad-supported applications. Yes, there are hundreds of other programs that act in a very similar manner. We are sure that you do not want to encounter any of them again, so we suggest installing security software after you get rid of this untrustworthy extension.

Where does Buzzdeal come from?

As you already know, Buzzdeal has an official website, and it is available for download at the Chrome Web Store; however, it is known that it might find other ways to sneak onto computers too. For example, it has been found that this threat travels in software bundles together with other free software too. It is basically impossible to recognize untrustworthy software, so we suggest always reading information in setup wizards. In addition, you have to double-check whether the program you are going to install on the system is 100% reliable. You can do that by reading experts’ and users’ reviews available on the web. You should not read the EULA and Privacy Policy documents too.

How to delete Buzzdeal
