This would be a scam
Do not click on any email that asks you to click on a shortcut to update or re-enter your details/password.
Delete the email and only log onto your account using your web browser you can then check you account details.
The only time I know a company would email you would be to click on a link to activate a new account you have just setup or if you have lost your password or user name.
