Is TuneUpMyMac really unsafe?

I've read a lot about this app, but what does it exactly do and is it really unsafe?

I have Sophos installed (yes, I use Virus Scanners and Safari security plugins - better to be safe than sorry)

I cannot access their website, because Adguard (security plugin for Safari) shows that it's unsafe. So is it really unsafe or can I check it out what it is and what it exactly does?

MacBook Pro, OS X Mavericks (10.9.4)

Who are you?

Are you working for these scam artists?

And what fits you to assess OSX software better than Apple can

But you're funny.

I would just like to apologise for my statements, they are in fact wrong and I will be uninstalling this app immediately.

You guys are completely correct.

I was not aware that this app can be so detrimental to a Mac's health.
