I got an alert from Firefox Monitor, but I have no idea what to do because I have no direct relationship with Eye4Fraud, nor do I know which of the many sites I have accounts with were affected. The report says that encrypted passwords were in the breach. Would Eye4Fraud keep their customers' customers' passwords as part of their service?

Rereading the paragraph on GoVanguard, it looks like only direct Eye4Fraud users had their encrypted passwords exposed.

Same here, no real useful info, just an alert requiring that I log in with my Firefox username and password. Is this a scam?

It’s not a scam but you can avoid the email link, go to monitor.firefox.com, and log in with your Firefox account to be sure.

Same here, just a warning with no useful I fo and a button to click to log in using my Firefox aco out info. Is this legit?
