It is giving wrong emails

Vikas, 2024-12-24

i installed the extension and it isnt registering it at al causing me to not be able to connect my linkedin

The tool does what is says it can do - but you can't download or save any of the results unless you pay $56/month. All I want is a tool that can pull a csv file of my own instagram following... this isn't for me.
