Caution!!!! How Your Personal Info Is Stolen Without Your Knowledge! by Donniefred(m): 1:16pm On Jan 13, 2017
Your personal info is not secure when using Google Chrome and other popular browser. Your bank details, emails, and usernames can be vulnerable to attack when using “Autofill”
to fill out online forms.



A discovery made few days ago showed how autofill feature can give hackers/cyber thieves a gateway to your personal information including  credit card details and all sensitive information in your possession.

This was tested in a few popular browsers like Apple’s safari, Opera and Chrome.

The moment you punch in your personal information and the autofill feature is enabled, it will fill in all data regards to your previous entry on all text boxes both visible and non visible web pages.

There are some boxes that are never visible on a web page but they are right there.
