Dear Supportteam,

Today I browsed true the add-on list of Mozilla Firefox I was searching for Safepal wallet extension to use my cryptocurrency wallet also in the webbrowser. So my searching ended on the following page: https://addons.mozilla.org/nl/firefox/addon/safepal-wallet/ After I installed this extension and logged in with my credentials it was not working. 8 hours later I checked if my funds were still save on my phone software wallet also from Safepal I saw nothing $0,- balance I was deep in shock I saw my last transactions and saw that my funs ($4000,-) were transferred to another wallet. I could not believe it an add-on that is deployed in the add-on list of Mozilla Firefox. Is there no any audit department that is checking every add-on and test it before it get listed on the official add-on store of Mozilla Firefox. Can you please have a look into this add-on before there will be a massive amount of people getting scammed. And also have a look into the developer identity I have found the IP-address of the developer by tracing the mail address. Please have a look into it and maybe their is a solution to help me out.

I can also proof that my funds are gone by this add-on. I can provide all the details & information that is needed. Also did I contacted the company behind the real Safepal wallet and they was in big shock that there is no audit department that is checking the add-ons in Firewall.

Add-on questions should be posted in the add-ons forum; https://discourse.mozilla-community.org/c/add-ons

Please contact them so they can inspect the add-on. Note: There should be an option on the add-ons webpage to file a complaint.
