Got an E mail telling me that I must give certain details B4 3rd January 2018

"If you've logged in to the site recently, you may already have noticed that we have been asking for this additional identification information for some time."

I have logged in recently and have never been asked for anything, indeed have just logged in and still no prompt, nor anywhere to even add said details that I can see
I'm not about to click any links in th E mail!!
is this a scam? or if genuine why can I not see it, nor find anywhere to add said details?
Anyone?
Brian

I filled it in the first time they asked (some weeks back) but I still got the same chasing email today.

Emails go out to everyone regardless of whether you have already supplied the data.

I assume this is for HMRC so they can track a persons non-ISA investments and apply the relevant tax automatically saving you the chore of telling them you made a few quid here and there.
