[Notes]:

• This is not a tab preloading issue, because the "Stay Alert to Data Breaches" card is displayed on all five tabs after logging in to FxA.

[Affected versions]:

• Firefox Release 73.0 - Build ID: 20200207195153
• Firefox Beta 74.0b3 - Build ID: 20200214015126
• Firefox Nightly 75.0a1 - Build ID: 20200214100511

[Affected Platforms]:

• Windows 10 x64
• Mac 10.15.2
• Ubuntu 18.04 x64

[Prerequisites]:

• Have a Firefox profile with the "trailhead.firstrun.branches" pref set to "join-dynamic" in the "about:config" page.
• You are logged in to FxA using a NEW Firefox Account.

[Steps to reproduce]:

1. Open the browser with the profile from prerequisites.
2. Click the "Firefox Account" toolbar button and select the "Firefox Monitor" option.
3. Click the "Sign In" button from the top-right part of the page.
4. Click the "Sign In" button and open a new tab.
5. Observe the displayed cards.

[Expected result]:

• The "Browse Privately", "Instantly Send Yourself Tabs" and "Get Firefox on Your Phone" cards are displayed.

[Actual result]:

• The "Stay Alert to Data Breaches" card is still displayed.

[Regression Window]:

• Considering the fact that this behavior is not reproducible on Firefox 72, using the mozregression tool I have managed to find the following regresion window:

From the pushlog, it seems that bug 1600779 has caused this behavior.

[Additional Notes]:

• This issue is still reproducible after a page refresh.
• This issue is no longer reproducible after browser restart.
• This issue is not reproducible with older "Firefox Accounts".
• Attached a screen recording of the issue.

@Punam, could you please take a look over this issue?

@mcoman I believe this issue is duplicate of https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1603803 as its not replicable for old FxA account or on restart. I will look into it, can you please log steps of pre-requisite 'create a new FxA Account' that leads to this issue. Thanks

Hi Punam, in order to create a new FxA account we used the following steps:

[Prerequisites]:

• Have a valid email address that was never linked to a FxA account before.

[Steps]:

1. Open the browser and navigate to the "about:welcome" page.
2. Enter the email from prerequisites in the text field and click the "Continue" button.
3. Complete the sign-up form and click the "Create account" button.
4. Enter the 6-digit code received on the email from prerequisites and click the "Verify" button.

I hope it helps. If you will need other information you can ping me anytime here or on slack (mcoman).

Thanks @mconman, the underlying issue is similar to https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1600779#c14 . fxAccounts.listAttachedOAuthClients() API call returns error "UNVERIFIED_ACCOUNT" for new accounts, with caching in place the next call to retrive attached client happens after 2 hrs or on browser restart. Marking issue as duplicate of 1603803
