  • Passwords Which can be used to hack your social media accounts and at very bad situation your entire mobile can be hacked.
  • Credit Card number and CVV Which can be used to hack your bank account and unauthorized purchases in your name or take out cash advances using your account.
  • Your OTP Which can be used fake online payments as well as to change your social media account's passwords.
  • Even the Email ID Which can be used to send spam emails which include malicious links and stuffs you find inappropriate

  • Get the selected text when you click Encrypt and Copy from the context menu.
