I received an email from Firefox Monitor <breach-alerts@mozilla.com> about a data breach. When I click the "Go to Dashboard" link, it opens URL https://accounts.firefox.com/oauth/signin?client_id=8... My email is prefilled. There is NO password field to complete. But when I click "Sign in", it simply reloads the exact same page. Same thing happens in a private window. Any thoughts?

Hi Rick, what if you try starting on the Monitor site and click Sign In there:

In my limited experience:

I think it is normal to see no password field when the Firefox Accounts sign-in page site detects that you have signed in to a different Mozilla site in a different tab (such as the Add-ons site or this site). Or maybe if it detects that you saved your Firefox Account password in Firefox's Lockwise password manager. Hard for me to separate those things...
