Anyone received a possibly dodgy email from 'Mumsnet'

Hi
I've just received an email from 'Mumsnet', which looks and sounds quite real. However it is written as if I'm new to the site (I've been here for about 5 years I think) and is inviting me to change my username. Is there somewhere I can send it to get it checked out?
Thanks, R

Forward it to [email protected]
I've always found them helpful.

Will report this & hopefully get it noticed ASAP.
Anyone else has had an email?

Quite a few people have received this email (including Zombie). It's a glitch in the system, not a scam.

Thanks Katherine, and thanks for confirming it was a genuine email. I am pretty sure I haven't updated my newsletter or email preferences recently - not within the last two weeks anyway - so there might be a glitch there?
