Firebox emailed me that a data search revealed that Search results have detected that your email may have been exposed. It recommended you act now to resolve this breach. It said password and partial credit card data was compromised. Is this a legitimate notice or a scam to get me to click the link it provided to go to Dashboard.

Hi

This is not a scam and comes from the Firefox Monitor service. This support article should help:
