'Add our extensions to see the content' Pop-ups

Posted: July 24, 2017

The 'Add our extensions to see the content' pop-ups are fraudulent alerts, which you may encounter while browsing low-quality pages that have been paid to promote the fairly dubious ads and sites that may lead to these pop-ups. The 'Add our extensions to see the content' pop-ups appear to be very similar to the 'Add extension to leave' Pop-Ups since they attempt to convince users that the installation of the extension is necessary to continue browsing the Web.

The extensions that may be promoted via the 'Add our extensions to see the content' pop-ups may vary, but they usually have one thing in common – they may have nothing of value to offer. Usually, the add-ons these pop-ups promote are associated with advertising activity. This means that these extensions can be classified as adware since they'll display ads on a large number of pages that users browse regularly. These ads also may contain unfiltered content so that it is possible that it may promote dubious sites and services, as well as disturbing or adult content. We advise our readers to keep in mind that Web browser pop-ups that tell them to install a certain piece of software should not be trusted unless they are displayed by a reputable website.

If you've encountered the' Add our extensions to see the content' pop-ups recently and you closed them without installing anything, then there's nothing to worry about. However, if you did install the extension they offered, then it is recommended to attempt to remove the unwanted application from the Google Chrome's extension manager. If this does not work, then running a reputable security scanner should solve the issue in no time.
