Not logged off on old phone

I returned a phone that I had for 2 weeks (the phone was a Motorola G Stylus 2024, if that's even relevant), and while I did a factory reset on the phone before returning it, I am worried that my Firefox account information is still accessible through the device.

One reason why I am worried is because, when looking at synced windows open, *everything* that I had open on there was open and accessible through my account. Another reason that I am worried is because I did not log out on the device before returning it to my local Best Buy.

It'd probably be impossible to track down the exact phone that I had, but can anything be done? Should I redo my log-in password for Firefox (or even all the sites that I used on that phone) or am I worried over nothing?

Hello,

Last year I created a Firefox account to sync some of my bookmarks. The email I used was a temporary email as I wasn't allowed to use my work email for it, I used [edited] @dusyum.com.

I can log in to my Mozilla account but I can't access my bookmarks. Is there any way possible to recover my bookmarks? I can't add a secondary email or account recovery key without access to the temp mail. All I want is the bookmarks, I have no passwords or any sensitive information saved. I've attached a screenshot of proof that I have access to my account. I also remember many of the bookmarks I saved, maybe that could be helpful as proof that I am the account owner?

Thanks in advance!

I want to delete my Firefox account. But while trying to sign in it required a verification code sent to my email address. The problem is I don't have access to that email address (it has been deleted). So I can't receive the verification code. In that case how can I delete my account?

When you rebranded the Firefox accounts to Mozilla accounts (or maybe during the close of relay??) I accidentally created a second account. How can I merge my accounts or just the account data?

I am auditing my accounts and my MFA codes so that is why I am now finally dealing with this.

Is there any process I can go through to take browsing history and bookmarks from one of my accounts and merge them into another one?

I could even create a new Firefox profile so that it's possible to export this data to import into the other profile, then sync.

If I manually import data, does it overwrite the old data or will they merge together?

Let me know what information you need from me.

Thank you

I recently created a new Firefox account using my new gmail address. I still have an old Firefox account associated with an old gmail address that was compromised; I would like to delete the old Firefox account. When I try to sign in to the old Firefox account, I'm told I'll have to sign in using my "primary" account--presumably the new account. When I sign in to the new account, I only see an option to delete the new account, which I don't want to do, as I have Firefox Relay and passwords connected to it. How do I delete (only) the old Firefox account? Thanks.

I tried Mozilla Monitor, logging in using my Mozilla account, but it wouldn't accept my UK address. It would only accept USA addresses. So I was not able to run the scan and reach the stage where you can delete the Monitor Account

Using the same personal data, but selecting a USA location, I ran the scan and then dieted the account successfully.

As I used the same email address for each attempt does the successful deletion on the second attempt mean all my Monitor accounts have been deleted?

ChatGPT indicates that this is the case but I would welcome further advice.

I'm not sure if this is a Firefox or Google problem, I'm guessing Firefox because it doesn't happen in Chrome.

Every time I try to login to google in Firefox it auto logs me into a specific account, I don't mean it is already logged in, I'm logged out and where the blank field is to enter your account username(email) the drop down pops up and shows all the gmail accounts and picks one on its own then procedes to the next page for the password on its own. It's like someone took control of the mouse and was doing it for me. Really pisses me off because I'm trying to login to a different account and it chooses the same one every time and I can't choose. If this is some kind of auto login feature please tell me how to turn it off.

Hi, I keep receiving an email regarding this issue.

Your Mozilla account and data will be deleted Your Mozilla account is used to access free privacy and browsing products like Firefox sync, Mozilla Monitor, Firefox Relay, and MDN. On Saturday, May 17, 2025, your account and your personal data will be permanently deleted unless you sign in.

Could you please help me sort it out? Also, see the attached screenshot.

Thank you.

Cheers, Raja

I continually received messages from Mozilla stating that my Mozilla account and data would be deleted.
