Odd... Ever since I gave two email addresses to Firefox email hacked site I've had an unprecedented amount of Spam... I decided to delete an email then checked again. Automatically I received even more Spam to my main email account. Only Firefox had both email addresses as one was an alias. HAS FIREFOX BEEN HACKED or something more sinister for Firefox?

What web site are you referring to by "Firefox email hacked site" ?

Firefox itself is the name of the web browser and not a company or a service or such as the company that makes the desktop Firefox web browser (for Windows, Mac OSX, Linux) is Mozilla.

Are you referring to the Firefox Monitor ?

Checking a email address at https://monitor.firefox.com should not give you any spam.
