Similar Photo Cleaner is all about noxious scans and popups alertsĪ big giveaway is the spreading peculiarities of this applet.
Is Similar Photo Cleaner actually benign and useful, though? No, it’s not.
It purports to find all similar or duplicate photos inside a Mac in mere minutes, providing the feature of obliterating the replicas to reduce redundancy and thereby free up disk space. Contrary to the recent rogue program from this family called Mac Auto Fixer that claims to take care of overall macOS stability, the one in question follows a narrower tactic. That’s not because of some fancy features or helpfulness whatsoever – instead, it’s due to a massive stealth distribution frenzy and a heavy brainwashing load imposed upon the numerous plagued users. Its self-explanatory name, Similar Photo Cleaner, has quickly become a buzzword in the Mac community over the past few days.
The ill-minded creators of a major Mac scareware lineage have come up with a fresh instrument to manipulate users into coughing up money.
