I'd sent my sister an e-card from 123 Greetings on March 2nd. I kept getting notifications in one of my email addresses. I opted out of it, but I've still been getting the desktop notifications. Even though I've contacted them about it several times, they're not much help. They left an address which took me to this area in Firefox & their instructions are very vague & don't make any sense. This is what I received to copy & paste, which is how I got here... about:preferences#privacy Then this... After the options open, scroll down a little and you will find the option notifications, beside that you will find settings option, click on the same, to find all the website you have allowed for receiving notifications from, choose the options accordingly.

There isn't a place to reverse this. Other than asking for help here, I know nothing else to do except to contact my State Attorney General. Thank you in advance for any potential help you can give me.

God bless!
