Hi guys,
The security research team at Kaspersky have just released a list of 35 malicious Google Chrome extensions you need to remove from your device.
If you have any of these extensions that have 87 million downloads between them installed on your device, here is what the extension creators can do:
• Track all user activities to collect and sell information about them.
• Steal card details and account credentials.
• Embed ads on web pages.
• Substitute links in search results (as mentioned above).
• Replace the browser’s home page with an advertising link.
Please check your Google Chrome browser for the presence of the following extensions. If you have any of them installed, remove them immediately and contact our privacy care team, who will advise you on steps you can take.
