It displayed my IP address and the website said that i was one of 10 people selected randomly to win an iPhone X as a gift for using Mozilla on my phone.

I never received this kind of content from Mozilla so I Googled it yet nothing related appeared. Then I copied the link to the address bar and the following text appeared:

" 

 Web Listing Disabled
 The owner of this web site has disabled web listing.

 If you are the owner of this web site, you can enable web listing by setting X-Container-Meta-Web-Listings.

 Index File Not Found

Hi

It looks like some low level malware appeared from a site you were browsing. I recommend clearing the browser history using the trash can icon to remove this.

firefox.fidelity-program.com is not a Mozilla website and certainly does not feel like a url Mozilla would use.

Mozilla websites are generally *.mozilla.org or urls that lead to same page. https://wiki.mozilla.org/Over_100_domains

Mozilla does not do contests or surveys where if you fill out persdonal info you have a chance to win a insert Apple product or a insert gift car etc.
