It, will be a scam. The link will take you to a fraudulent website designed to capture your Sky username and password.

If you haven't followed the link and entered your details it's probably not necessary, but it wouldn't do any harm to change your password anyway.

 

Just mark the email as spam, but otherwise ignore it.
