WRONG IP and location sent in notification mail - SECURITY ISSUE ?!
I have updated the Two-Spep verification settings at my firefox account.
NOW, the mails I received have IP adresses with "Boardman, OR, United States", WRONG CONTINENT!
- There is no other device linked.
- The notifications mails with wrong location should be related to my setting update. There is no other mail that indicates my account changes.
- My IP address is located to my country, I checked in firefox on a IP check website.
Looks like a problem from firefox!
Mails: 1. Account recovery key generated - correct, I did this in account settings
- ... Germany - correct location and IP
2. Account recovery key removed - correct, I did this in account settings
- Boardman, OR, United States (estimated)
- IP address: 54.190.54.119"' 1:22:09 AM (PDT) Friday, Mar 19, 2021
3. Two-step verification enabled - correct, I did this in account settings
- Boardman, OR, United States (estimated)
- IP address: 34.214.206.92 3:12:14 AM (PDT) Friday, Mar 19, 2021
I activated recovery, deactivated recovery and activated Two-step instead.
The mails said: ".. your Firefox Account from the following device ...", my device is in germany, not "Boardman" US.
I am seriously worried!
The arrived Mail sequence is correct, I made these three changes. But what is happening with location and IP here?!

For example iplookup:
- Hostname services.addons.mozilla.org
- Continent North America
- Country United States
- Region Oregon
- City Boardman
- IP Address 35.163.231.197
Is mozilla sending his own IP adresses to me for verification?
