This adware is listed as a PUP (a potentially unwanted program) due to some malicious activities it executes on users’ computers.

Best Coupons ad-supported software operates as a browser extension on all the most popular web browsers such as Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Internet Explorer, Safari, etc. If your computer has been infected with this adware, you will see Best Coupons pop-up windows whatever website you are visiting. Though, it is a general feature of pop-up adwares to appear on online shopping websites on a more regular basis than on other web pages. Best Coupons application pop-ups coupons which cover the content of the website.
Besides being annoying, advertisements will significantly slow you down. Operating system will be forced to utilize more CPU resources than usual and this will result in a more idle handling of procedures. Additionally, some ads that adware parasites generate can include fake surveys or lotteries, aiming to invite users to disclose their confidential information for the sake of having a shot at winning prizes. Do not get carried away by these propositions and think rationally: do not disclose private information about yourself to a bizarre pop-up.
The user has no choice but to search for the exit button. If he accidentally clicks on the advertisement, he gets redirected to some phishing site. This browser extension was designed specifically to make money by generating traffic to the third parties’ websites and collecting sales leads.
