Why would a link in an educational email from Mozilla send me to greenbot.com

link in Moz://a email about A healthy Internet is secure and private sent me to greenbot.com with an offer for Ipad User and when trying to exit showed me another offer for Ipad user. This occurred on my Ipad iOS 9.3.5. Anyone else having or reporting this? The link was to see a list of apps that have end to end encryption. This was very surprising to me. Thank you.

Hi, Let's find out if the message came from Mozilla or if it was a third-party trying to make you think it was from Mozilla. Would it be possible to upload the message for us to analyze it?

  1. Save the message as an EML file.
  2. Upload the file to a cloud service, like OneDrive, Google Drive, or Dropbox, and paste a link to the file in this forum thread.

Thank you for your response but I am not able to upload a EML file. I have tried now for 30 minutes. Can I forward it somewhere?

Unfortunately, we will need more information. Neither OneDrive, Google Drive, or Dropbox will work?

Hello, Thank you for your time, I will not/cannot upload to any of your options.I will just make a mental note not to follow any links in Firefox/Mozilla emails. Or just unsubscribe.
