Did anyone else (regular customers, that is) get an email from Amazon with a request to verify their identify on Kindle Direct Publishing? I got the following email this evening:

Hi [my name as on my account],
To promote safety and trust across KDP, we’re asking authors and publishers to verify their identity.
Please log into KDP and submit a valid government-issued ID. We recommend completing this action via mobile device for easier use. Once we verify your identity, you can resume creating a book and access our publishing features.
For any questions, you can visit our Help Center or contact us.
Verify your identity
Best regards,

But I'm neither an author or publisher, and I've never even gone near KDP. I don't think it's a scam, but why in the world would Amazon send this to me
(Until I know more, I'm not clicking on anything
)
(I may have put this in the wrong subforum; moderators, please help if that's the case. Thanks!)
