I got this same email from Turbotax, so instead of clicking on the email, I logged into TurboTax (after they sent me both a text and email verification) and tried to figure out what was going on. It's fairly confusing since Turbotax provided it, but they don't have a way to log into it.
Anyway, after I logged into TurboTax and got nowhere with searching for IDnotify, I clicked on the email and it took me to a website that has a big TurboTax logo on it with an idnotify.com URL and it gave me this message:
Please contact support at [phone number removed] for assistance.

Get comprehensive identity protection coverage
Exclusively for TurboTax customers - get IDnotify's most comprehensive identity protection plan at a special discounted price. The Premier Plan offers Tri-Bureau Credit Monitoring, Financial Account Takeover Notifications, and a full suite of identity monitoring services.
When I call that number, there is a recording asking for my SSN.
This REALLY smells like either a PHISHING scam or a sales pitch from Experian or TurboTax or IDNotify, or some hacker in Russia or China ...
Anyone know whats up with this?
