I see that YouTube has replied but anyone who sees this must remember, The company will never ask you to reply your password, they will never send you a link to login, they will never persuade you to sign in quickly to resolve an issue ASAP. 1/2
.. They will only ever email you to inform you of whatever they wanna tell you and then request you login your usual way, to make sure it's all done safely and properly. 2/2 Just adding to what they've said :)
