I got a message in my iPhone 11 in my Settings that I need to update my Apple ID Settings (some account services require to sign in again). Is this safe to sign in and provide my password or is this a scam?

Thanks so much JJRSAC for your valuable advise and this helps a lot to make people wary of security breaks calmer in their transaction.
Your advise is very helpful and I am happy to inform that I abide with the prompt message and it seems everything is OK.
Again my thanks.
I am wary that I get notice in my SETTINGS to update Apple ID Settings. Is this safe or is this phishing?
