Dear Marco,

I got the request as well and was confused, so probably proceed with caution

Subject: [Wikidata] Re: Wikidata email address confirmation

Just received this email. but says site reports for Cancel email confirmation: 
Invalid confirmation code. The code may have expired.

Is this a new kind of AI hack?
