Do you know what Pro Flip Ads are?
Even though it might seem as if Pro Flip Ads can offer you great deals, the add-on that is introducing you to them is just another ad-supported program that serves third parties instead of you. The add-on is called “Pro Flip,” and you can acquire it from an official download page pro-flip.apps-repo.net/us/install. If that is where you have downloaded the extension onto Google Chrome from, you might be able to focus on the ad-supported program completely. Is it malicious or dangerous? That depends on how you interact with it. If you let it in, you grant it the permission to record and change data on the sites you visit. What does that mean? That means that the adware can scan the content of the sites that you visit and introduce you to ads and offers based on it. Although that might seem like a useful feature, in reality, it could be dangerous. Keep reading to learn more about this, as well as how to delete Pro Flip Ads.
If you have not downloaded Pro Flip from its official website, it is most likely that you have interacted with a third-party installer that might have bundled multiple programs together. Have you downloaded the adware along with hijackers, PUPs, Trojans, and other kinds of malware? If you do not know, you can install a malware scanner to check things out, just make sure that the scanner you employ is legitimate. There are plenty of fake security tools that pose as authentic tools just to open security backdoors or make you pay for useless services. Speaking of fake services, you have to be very cautious about the offers represented via Pro Flip Ads. Although they might seem great and beneficial, there is always a possibility they are representing specific third-party advertisers. What if the offers that Pro Flip Ads showcase are not beneficial at all? That is up to you to figure out, but our research team warns that it is more likely that you can save more money by researching online deals on your own.
