As soon as the victim downloads PrivacyCare trial version, it pretends to scan your computer and shows a grossly exaggerated amount of non-existent errors. Then, PrivacyCare offers to buy the full version to fix these false errors. If the user agrees, PrivacyCare does not only fix the errors, but it also takes the user’s money and may even install additional spyware into the victim’s computer.
