Isisombulu esikhethiweyo

Hi

Yes, that email is legitimate (I got a copy myself!), but if you are ever not sure, I recommend (assuming your original copy of Firefox is from a legitimate source), that you check for any updates by going to;

  1. Help
  2. About Firefox

If you are online, it will check to see if you are using the latest version and offer you any update that is available to your existing version.

I hope this helps, but if not, please come back here are we can look into a different solution for you.

You are right to be careful.

. Whenever you get a message / popup that software / files need to be updated;

DO NOT USE ANY OF THE PROVIDED LINKS

While this may be a legitimate message, it could also be Malware or a Virus. Any time you want or need to check for upgrades, go to the web site of the True Owner of the program in question. For example, to check out Firefox, go to Mozilla.org. {web link}

You can also report such a site at; Google Report Phishing Page {web link} which is the same when done while on site by going to Help > Report Web Forgery

Help us safeguard Mozilla’s trademarks by reporting misuse {web link}
