If you are one of them, you should know that this cannot happen through the add-on’s homepage – pricefab.com, because the provided download button is inactive. This leads to the conclusion that the Price Fab extension must be using other methods to get installed on users’ computers. This is not at all surprising considering the fact that Price Fab is ad-supported. Extensions of this type usually arrive on the system bundled with freeware. They get installed as additional during the setup process of the selected app, and users only realize that they have such software on their computer when they start seeing ads by it. Do not let yourself be one of them. Do a research before you download a certain app and make sure you only choose reliable sources. Also, remember to be attentive and to read all the information you are given during setup as this will prevent future problems.
Why are these ads dangerous?

The collected data is supposed to be used to enhance the service, in other words to provide you with ads more relevant to your interests. This is one of the ways for the developers of Price Fab to increase the number of clicked ads as they rely on how temped you will be by them. These are simple tricks you should not fall for. Clicking Price Fab ads may not help you save money, but it will surely expose you to threats by taking you to possibly malicious third-party websites.
