Outlook.com issue

Every once in a while I receive email that seems to belong to someone else. Yesterday I received the following email from Microsoft. This appears to be a valid email. However, my email address is "*** Email address is removed for privacy *** NOT *** Email address is removed for privacy ***. Can someone tell me if this is a valid email from Microsoft? If it is, then there appears to be something screwed up in the management of the two aliases. Any help on how to fix this would be great.

Did you request a password reset for your Microsoft account (*** Email address is removed for privacy ***)?

If you requested this password reset, go here:

If you didn't make this request, use this link to cancel it:

Thanks,

I rec'd an email from Hotmail Team requesting I update my email to prevent interruption or my acct will be suspended. Is this a valid email?

Here's the email:

how to identify valid email from microsoft

How can I recognize an email from "Microsoft" as being valid?
In my Hotmail inbox listing an email from "Microsoft Account Team" is preceded with an icon of a green shield containing a check mark. Is this supposed to be an official MS symbol or validation stamp?

This particular email subject is "Microsoft Account Security Confirmation", sender IP is 207.46.200.11; smtp.mailfrom=*** Email address is removed for privacy *** It does not ask me to provide personal info, however, a link is provided to a website to change my password and restore account security information. The catch is that the email acct. cited to be removed isn't mine but is one very similar in name. Is it possible this email is official but that the MS Acct. Team has been "set up" by a phisher?

Thanks for your input.
