I've found the same thing. When I sign in on my Mac (running Chrome) and 
install the extension, I see this the first time I run it via the Google 
Accounts page:

"The Chrome To Phone application on your computer is requesting access to your 
Google Account for the product(s) listed below. 

    Chrome to Phone (chrometophone.appspot.com) - not affiliated with Google
If you grant access, you can revoke access at any time under 'My Account'. The 
Chrome To Phone application will not have access to your password or any other 
personal information from your Google Account. Learn more 

 The application that directed you here claims to be "Chrome To Phone". We are unable to verify this claim as the application runs on your computer, as opposed to a website. We recommend you deny access unless you trust the application."

Ahh... What? I've checked it out and everything seems to point to this being an 
official extension. In the Android store it's official, on the Chrome Webstore 
it's official (with video by Dave Burke who clearly works for Google (do a 
search!) and the help page links though to a Google website.

So what is with this 'error'? Anyway, I'm satisfied that I can allow it and not 
worry at this point. Seems all Googly on each end so I'll just run with it for 
now. Please fix this though or make it clear what this message is actually 
referring to!

I'm having this issue running a PC.
I've deleted the extension and re-added it several times and this doesn't 
resolve the issue.
I used to use this extension, but I'm not going to until this is resolved

Chrome To Phone is requesting permission to:

How do I fix this?
