User reviews

I am not sure if this is a security breach or simply a conflict, but when I turn this extension on, my online banking login system 2way verification method sends out wrong matching codes. I was careful and did not verify the wrong codes, I deactivated this and everything went back normal. Again I am not sure if this is a scammer or just a technical problem, anyway I am going to remove it and I hope someone with better cybersecurity knowledge looks into this service.
