When I downloaded an app today my iPhone ask for a rescue email address and said it was for added security. Did anyone else get this message?

I had that today and it pisses me off that I am trying to cut down on email accounts and they want me to use more. I have my gmail (connected to iTunes) and my iCloud. I couldn't use my iCould because it was already connected to iTunes with the gmail. So I had to remember an email that I actually want to use. The questions were a pain also, why couldn't I make my own questions like most places do?

It was apple and I received an email from apple stating I had taken the added security step and provided a rescue email address. Just wondering if anyone else has done this.

If you see my previous post, you don't have to use a rescue email. It even says "optional" in the field where you enter the text.

You don't have to insert a "rescue" email address.

I did find the security question choices rather annoying though.
