    Hello Armor Community, 

     

    Thanks for bringing this up. This was a false positive detected by our team and should be corrected. If you're still experiencing the blocks, please power cycle your router.

I agree. It seems they updated something last night that triggered this. All I can find online is that it is the Google Pay api but cannot tell if something had been hijacked.

    Interestingly I dont use Armor on my Orbibut I just installed a Bitdefender BOX and loaded BitDefender on my wife's phone. It too alerted to this API last night. Are you 100% sure it is a false positive?
