Received this email this morning, "We detected suspicious activity on your Firefox Account. Your account may have been compromised. To prevent further unauthorized access to your Firefox Account, we’ve reset your password and are notifying you as a precaution. What should you do? • First, change your Firefox Account password. • Second, if Firefox stores passwords to websites, you should change those passwords as well. Attackers may have access to those passwords, so you should check those accounts for suspicious activity. Learn how to see what passwords Firefox is storing for you.

Is this a scam? I haven't used Firefox for a month or so (I use it on Linux machine) Or will they really reset your password ?
