Received email from Firefox that I was included in data breach by "Data Enrichment Exposure From PDL Customer". I need to identify this source of the breach in the hope to determining if they are associated with LinkedIn

In your specific case, I assume you are referring to this breach (more information here).

Unfortunately, since data often flows so freely between various organizations, it can be difficult to pinpoint the exact source or sources of a data breach.

In the specific breach referenced above, it appears to be a collection of data scraped from multiple sources that was used for lead-generation marketing.

There are different types of breaches recorded by Firefox Monitor. For example, a website breach will have more information about the source impacted. However, a data aggregator breach likely won't include that information because the data comes from multiple sources.

When in doubt, change all of your passwords and keep an extra close watch on your account and financial activity to ensure that you aren't further effected by identity theft.

Hope this helps.
