Important: your Email Address was found on the Dark Web

Hello,

I received an e-mail from IDnotify (as part of my subscription with TurboTax) that said my e-mail address was supposedly found on the dark web.

 

The e-mail stated that I could "Sign in" to see more details. When I clicked "Sign in" on the e-mail - it took me to what seems like the Homepage for Turbotax where I have an option to go to "Personal Taxes" or "Business Taxes." I tried selecting both options separately and neither of the subsequent pages provide any notifications / details related to my e-mail address being found on the dark web.

 

Please help me find this detail.

Never click on anything in an email from someone you don’t know. Ignore it but out of an abundance of caution change your email password.

Confirmed with my cybersecurity software that the e-mail is legit (it just leads me to the TurboTax website). Also, I have been receiving these e-mails (as expected) for a while now.

 

Is there someone from Intuit that can confirm an incorrect "redirect" from recent IDnotify e-mails?
