It is a phishing attempt https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phishing. Do NOT click the link. Nobody from this list did it on purpose, but the person who sent it is seeking your login details through this hoax.
The same message has been sent to a number of Wikimedia lists today (including this, analytics, AI) spoofed from email addresses on that list.
