Undoubtedly, Game Wham is an adware application that will provide you with lots of ads and sponsored links. The ads will show up on your browser windows as the application manages to open them without any consent. If you do not want to have such uncontrollable application on your system, you can remove it with the instructions below the text. There are even more ways in which the ads could be displayed, and we will provide more information if you continue reading the article. Also, it may be so that the program’s creators receive money if you click the ads, register on the promoted site, sign up for services, etc. Unfortunately, the only reward you will get for participating in this is the annoying ads and risks that come from using adware.

While reading the application's Privacy Policy document, we found out about the “Short Message Service” that might be made available by the program’s creators. Apparently, for such service to work they would need to get your telephone number. The application and its third-party partners can gather information about you through HTML cookies and other technology. We do not know for sure if they would collect your private data, but there is a possibility, so you should keep your telephone number and other private data secure.

The primary concern for the software is the third-party advertisements and links. The ads could show up as pop-ups while you visit the official application’s website, but they could also occasionally be loaded in new browser windows or on the program’s main window too. All of this content comes from an unreliable source that is usually managed by a third party. For instance, some of the third-party partners could promote suspicious software, e.g. potentially unwanted programs (PUPs), browser hijackers, other adware, and so on.

Game Wham can be downloaded from gamewham.com, where it is advertised as an application that allows you to play various games online or install them into your computer. Clearly, it says so that users would be tempted to download it, but in reality, you will not see any games. The worst part is that if you download the application from the official web page, you will be offered to download more unreliable software on the setup wizard. For example, you could be also suggested to install PUPs, browser hijackers, and so on.

It looks like the program tries to trick its users, since it offers one content and provides something else. To avoid similar situations in the future, you should spend some time reading software’s Privacy Policy or End User License Agreement documents before installation. As for Game Wham, you can delete it with the given instructions below or you could download a legitimate security tool that will do all the job for you. In fact, it would be a better to use this automatic solution because the security tool would take care of other possible threats. Users that have more questions about the adware can leave their messages in the comments section, and we will try to reply as soon as possible.
