MyFasterPC.com review – It’s another scam! Lookout!
Last Updated on Wednesday, 28 December 2011 02:37 Written by Mike Wednesday, 16 November 2011 05:15
Another SCAM Alert:
It is amazing how many of these sites will pop up. MyFasterPC.com will make my third article warning people against the same company that sells junk software like these other posts; maxmyspeed.com and mycleanpc.com.
Apparently they think they can change a few keywords to stay ahead of the game.
Watch out for this one readers. This has been advertised in several prominent media outlets (I just watched this on comedy central) as being able to fix any pc. It can “make a 7 year old computer blazingly fast, even faster than a new computer”. This is just plain horse pucky.
Do yourself a favor and stay far far away from this product or any product that makes such ridiculous claims. If you are experiencing a slow computer, download malwarebytes and super antispyware. Update them both and let them run…preferably in Safe Mode. Another good program worth mentioning is the venerable and most awesome Spybot search and destroy available form safer-networking.org or this direct link.
Be warned the WOT and McAfee both list mycleanpc.com finallyfast.com and doublemyspeed.com, myfasterpc.com and cleanmypc.com as severe threats. Closer inspection reveals that this web site is owned by a company called cyberdefender ( a known spyware company )
Have an experience you would like to share…leave a comment so other’s may avoid these mycleanpc.com types of traps.
Make Sure you share this with your social networks, get the word out,

Here’s the deal, they want you to download there crappy software so that they can up-sell you a cleaning service. This is a service that does not work worth a crap, it will actually cause more problems than it will fix. It will even provide over 400 warnings on a clean install of windows.
Stay away!
Geek out.

My Clean PC’s software can “make a 7 year old computer amazingly fast, even faster than a new computer!”. This is just plain CRAP.
