From @lavenderandrue.bsky.social, it's a known AO3 bug. www.reddit.com/r/AO3/commen...

Always check where the emails are coming from! But at this point, an email with a reset password link coming from do-not-reply@archiveofourown.org seems to be legit. Just delete them.
A screenshot of the AutoModerator's comment from the attached Reddit link. This post contains the word 'password' in the title, so it is possibly about the recent issue with password reset emails being sent out/that you received one or multiple of these emails. If so, you are in luck. The OTW/AO3 Support are aware of this bug. At this time, they don't believe that any breach of The Archive has happened but they are paying attention to this issue. If the emails bother you, you can contact AO3 Support and they can disable the automated password reset E-Mail for your account. You would need to file a ticket to reset your password in the future though so only do this if you really need to. You can find known issues with the archive at https://archiveofourown.org/known_issues#current or by checking with the Official Status Account on Twitter https://twitter.com/AO3_Status or by searching this subreddit for others reporting similar issues. AO3 Support has asked us to remind you to keep the email address on your account up-to-date and secure, including using 2FA and unique passwords, and not sharing your email account with people (including siblings, significant others, or "best" friends). That person you're currently thinking is an exception? Especially don't share your email account with that person. Or your AO3 account. Or Reddit account. Stop sharing accounts altogether really.
