Confirm Account? Questionable Emals
I have a new Mozilla (FireFox) account and keep getting emails that say I need to confirm it. They include a button to do so but I'm not clicking it unless I get better information from you. Please help. The email swears my account will be deleted if I don't confirm it. What do I do?

Mozilla may go about deleting a Mozilla Account that has not been logged into for two or more years due to inactivity. There will be email notifications before the date.

It is possible to use the Firefox web browsers for desktop and mobile without using a Mozilla Account as this kb article shows what a Mozilla Account can be used for besides this support.mozilla.org site. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/access-mozilla-services-firefox-account#w_what-services-can-i-use-with-a-mozilla-account
Firefox Accounts was renamed as Mozilla Accounts back on November 1at, 2023 to reflect that it was not longer being used just for Firefox Sync. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-accounts-renamed-mozilla-accounts
Edit: By logging in and posting this thread here should confirm it is an active Mozilla account now.
