Hi, I entered a wrong email while creating a new account on Firefox Sync I removed this wrong email and entered the correct one but there're 2 things which worries me:

1- Can the other user see my passwords and everything ? 2- When I was entering the correct email address I got a message that the accounts will be merged, so if I used the correct account will the wrong account still be synced ?

Thanks.

If you weren't able to confirm the email then there has been no initial sync done and no data has been uploaded to the Sync server. That other user would also have to know the password of the Sync account to be able to connect to the account.

Okay, but what about if he verified his email address and then he started the 'forget password' flow ? he will then have access to whatever data is there

No. If someone would reset the password of the Sync account then all data stored on the Sync server will be removed if there would exist such data because a new (different) password won't be able to decrypt this data and if would be worthless to keep any data stored on the Sync server that had been encrypted with a different password (only with the original password this data can be decrypted). So no worries needed.
