Found an (Amazon) account in my passowords that I didn't add myself
Hello,
I opened up my passwords today and found an amazon account with password and email that I can log into, but it is not mine. I did not add it myself, and after checking the date at which it was added (almost exactly one year ago), it seems to me like it has to be a mix-up of some sort.
Can anyone tell me, if this has happened elsewhere? I have not immediately found any help articles about this topic. I am just curious to know if someone else was using my account or if there was actually some kind of mix-up. I have not found any other passwords that are not mine so far, but it still seems suspicious to me.
I will probably delete the information because it seems like a huge breach of privacy, even so I think that something like that shouldn't be happening.
I'm not sure why anyone would need pictures or anything, but if it helps I will be sure to cooperate!
Thanks in advance.

Has anyone else used your system? You can go ahead and remove it.
Hello, as far as I am concerned, no one else used my system. Hence my thoughts of having got my PC or Firefox/ Email account hacked.
Well, just in case; Further information can be found in this article; https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-firefox-issues-caused-malware?cache=no
