I tried to look at a link on facebook and it popped up that Firefox detected 2 viruses and said I should call for help in fixing the problem. The number I was given is 866-415-5853. I called and got someone from Global Access who wanted to remote my pc thru LogMeIN Rescue. He said I had all kinds of problems and security issues with my pc but it could all be fixed for $249.

What I want to know is this a legitimate message from Firefox security?

Mozilla does not provide phone technical support, and never has, nor will they any time in the future. If you want some suggestions on how to scan for malware, I'll provide it below.

You can try these free programs to scan for malware, which work with your existing antivirus software:

Microsoft Security Essentials is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista/XP if you don't already have one.

Further information can be found in the Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware article.

Firefox is a web browser and not a company as that would be Mozilla.

The Firefox browser would never give you a phone number to call nor would it ever refer you to a third-party service, especially one that charges and or does remote access.

Firefox itself does not detect viruses as it is not say a antivirus scanner.

Anyways next time you encounter something like this, ask first instead of after the fact.
