2promoter.com is a deceptive website that uses an affiliate fraud technique. The goal of the page is to convince users into buying a license for the McAfee anti-virus. The page implies that the user's computer may be exposed to viruses and malware. It also exploits additional social-engineering tricks, such as showing a countdown during which a sizeable discount code is supposedly available.
Dubious websites such as 2promoted.com are often tasked with the distribution of intrusive adware, browser hijackers or other PUPs (Potentially Unwanted Programs). Even when the promoted product is perfectly legitimate, as in this case, users should not trust a random website they stumbled upon. If you are genuinely interested in the shown product, check it out via a reputable app store.
2promoter.com also will try to get its visitors into enabling its push notification services. This is another behavior commonly observed in hoax websites. These sites will typically abuse the browser permissions they have received to run an intrusive ad campaign. Users will be subjected to numerous unwanted advertisements. The advertisements themselves could cause forced redirects to more shady websites with offers to install PUPs, running phishing schemes or shady online game platforms.
