It is advertised as an useful tool that will provide you with best coupons and deal offers to shop online and let you save both your time and money this way. However, it is not true. All those deals and coupons come in a form of annoying advertisements, such as pop-up, pop-under, in-text, banner or contextual ads. New tab or even window with ads on it can be opened at any time as well.

Usually those offers displayed by Search.couponsimplified.com appear on e-commerce websites, such as eBay or Amazon. You will be offered to purchase some particular goods or services at very appealing price rate – do not fall for that trick. Most of the time those offers are fake, they are just trying to win your attention and make you click on one of those ads this way. And we do not recommend to do that be cause if you click on one of them, you will be immediately redirected to other websites that might be owned by various cyber criminals, such as hackers or scammers. This way your computer can get infected with other viruses or if you attempt to purchase something there you can even get scammed and lose your money.
