Hello, I keep getting this in my email. Is it a thing? I did click the link to report and it errored out. Kinda freaked me out a tick, thought what if phishing. Please advise

I seem to get these sometimes even when I’m the one signing in. They do have this at the bottom, though, which might be helpful:
