I have received the following message: "We've spotted a new security breach: Search results for your ld@***.co.uk account have detected that your email may have been exposed. We recommend you act now to resolve this breach." Sender was Firefox Monitor: breach-alerts@mozilla.com. Not sure if this is a scam, but also not sure HOW I should act to resolve this breach, if it is legitimate. Can anyone help me?
