About Burner Mail

Burner Mail creates burner addresses, often through its browser extension, and forwards their mail to the user's personal inbox, with the option to block senders. Sign-up asks for a first name, email address and password. The terms say the service is operated from Romania and governed by Romanian law, and that payments may be processed by an online reseller acting as merchant of record; no payment methods or prices were listed on the pages read.
