When I click on the 'click here', it wants me to enter my password. I haven't yet, but it looks legitimate... just thought I'd run this by the forum. The text seems to suggest it will allow someone to 'replace all the security info' after a waiting period??

Someone started a process to replace all of the security info for the Microsoft account... |
If this was you, click the button below to bypass the waiting period by using your existing security info. |
If this wasn't you, someone else might be trying to take over ... Click here and we'll help you protect this account. |
If you don't recognize the Microsoft account ... you can click here to remove your email address from that account. |
Thanks, |
