Beware of emails from Mozilla! They might be phishing scams

If you’ve received emails that appear to come from Mozilla, you should avoid clicking on any links within those emails. According to a Mozilla blog post, there’s an extensive phishing campaign going on right now to trick you into providing your login details.

The most common phrase used by the hackers is “Your Mozilla Add-ons account requires an update to continue accessing developer features,” or some variation of that, reports BleepingComputer.

This is just another in a line of cybersecurity headaches for Mozilla, who has recently been battling cryptocurrency wallet scams in Firefox’s add-on repository—a problem that won’t quit even after Mozilla began auto-screening for such scams.

It’s a dangerous time to be a web user, with all kinds of phishing scams happening everywhere. Stay on guard and keep your eyes peeled, as phishing scams can be anywhere. For example, you might even find phishing links within Gmail’s new AI summaries.
