I can be in the middle of a game when it will be interrupted by an full screen message stating I requested something from Mozilla and I need to upgrade. I have the most recent upgrade. Is this a scam?

Is it a page with the Firefox logo on a weird server address (i.e., NOT mozilla.org)? That may be one of the advertising-driven malware sites that have been springing up lately. Definitely DO NOT download what they offer and cancel the download if given the opportunity.

What game is this appearing from?

Only the person who gets this can really load site link. This makes it harder to reproduce and also narrow down the offending ads doing this.
