Don't EVER click on a link from any company having you put a password in. Are you sure the URL it took you to was apple's site?
There are many Phishing scams out there trying to get your account info's and passwords and you may have given it to them.

Go to your account settings in iTunes and change your password!!

Hi jagardn,that I forgot apple.com was the site it refered me to,oh I call apple right away and it seems to be a legitimate email from apple,but the thing is that apple don't know why I received that message,cause I didn't change anything on my account till I received that email prompting me to reset my password in case the update of my billing address wasn't done by me,you know,ugh,I'm a little panicked cause they don't even now why I got that email
