i have a gmail account and received an email stating that it was from you and that i had won a million dollar contest.

i obviously don't believe that ya'll were having a contest and i never entered any contest.

how can i report this to Mozilla Firefox so that you can be made aware of someone using your name to defraud people?

Please report misuse of the Firefox trademark in websites using the Mozilla's Violating Website Report page and in emails by forwarding them to Mozilla's abuse email.
