Welcome to shopify payments email after 5 plus years?

I just received a welcome to shopify payments email today.  I have been with shopify for years and have been using shopify payments for all this time.  Why would they be sending me a welcome email now?

Thank you for the screenshots Jennifer! This does look like our standard onboarding email for Shopify Payments, but I am not sure why it was sent out to you today. I recommend double checking your store activity log (Settings > General > Store Activity Log) to see if there were any changes to your account that you didn't authorize or know about. 

 

I'd also double check for any additional store accounts that could be connected to this email address using our Forgot Store tool. 

 

If that all comes back clear, then I would disregard the email. But if you do have any concerns about your account, don't hesitate to connect with our authenticated chat team.

Hi, did you ever take further action or anything come of this? 

We just had something similar, albeit 15 months, not 5 years
