The traps we see online are very misleading, and novice or naive computer users may fall for their miraculous promises and prizes. This is the case with some pop-up windows coming from a website named Realnewshour.com, which content is 'TODAY ONLY: Claim (3) Free Spins,' and promises that the winners will get a brand new MacBook or an iPhone. Although this is a clear tactic (why a website will give away such valuable prizes out of nowhere?), there are tons of computer users that will click on it. The catch is that to receive the prize, the winner will need to pay for the shipping and handling, and this is when the con artists can make a great profit out of the naivete of the 'winners.' Also, they will ask for information such as e-mail address, personal address, phone number, etc. and use the collected information to perform other harmful actions. All of this mess is caused by adware that may have entered your machine without your knowledge, bundled with a downloaded free application or by the countless adware delivery methods.

If you are worried about these pop-ups because you tried to stop them from appearing and wasn't successful, do not be. They can be eliminated easily by an anti-malware scanner, that will detect them and take all the necessary steps to take them out of your sight and machine.
