Bogus phishing email?
Just received this:
Recently, there have been some problems with your orders. Your listings may not appear on our site and you will not be able to transfer funds out of your seller account.
Just to be safe, we may ask you some security questions the next time you sign into your account.
If clicking the link doesn’t seem to work, you can copy and paste the link into your browser’s address window, or retype it there:
{Moderator Edit (Jessica) Link removed}
If you do not complete this verification within 3 days, we may cancel your listings and hold any funds in your account for up to 90 days.
If you have questions or concerns about any part of the process, reply to this message.
As I’ve not been having any problems with orders I can assume that this is a bogus?
OBVIOUSLY DO NOT CLICK ON THE LINK.
Sincerely,
Seller Performance Team

Ignore it. If it’s genuine, it would come via your Amazon account and not as a direct e-mail. And you’ll be asked the security questions next time you log in!

Please hide the link - somebody can accidentally click on it 
And thank you for showing us that mail!

Delete the live link post haste before your post gets reported - the link almost certanly leads to a phishing site.

It seems one person has already clicked the lick - if you’ve left it too late to edit, try deleting it

To stop receiving any further emails you can use email wizard on Outlook. With wizard you can create a rule that forwards the message automatically to stop-spoofing@amazon.com and or NFIBPhishing@city-of-london.pnn.police.uk
With Apple mail you can use mail preferences to auto forward and delete.
Alternatively block sender.

Thanks for this, the wording you have used is EXACTLY the email that I received. That’s a load off my mind!!

I have just had the following email, no message in seller central though. Looks like a scam to me.
