I went to this site, no worries, nothing there but asks you to click...which you should not do. It says to copy the fix and paste it into the windows shell... sounds obvious, it's a scam. Except, this is a major funding company.

So the question is, is this legit from firefox? Or is that what? Go to myforwardsavings.com and you'll see what i mean. Or, see image i have included.

Hopefully someone up the chain in firefox can let me know. As i intend to report them if this is nefarious. Thank you.

Not from Mozilla. Why would the browser ask you to run admin?!?!?! Why are you on this shady site anyway? Why not use the more well known criminals?

Received a debt consolidation letter from forward funding, checked it out on BBB and on Trust Pilot... all good reviews. Has standing with the BBB. That is why. They advertised this site on their flyer. I later called them at their main number and confirmed, this is their site. That is the problem. Did i just hand over my social to criminals or is this legit? what legit site does this. see how tricky life has become. I did not see this screen when i entered my social. This was next day, going back to the site...saw it. And i'm asking firefox an important question and so far, no official answer.

Nope, it's not us, officially.
