"account recovery" and "password reset" emails are phishing links
There's been a wave of emails sent out by what seems to be the official Jagex email address. This email address is faked and is an attempt by hackers to get your information.
I'll leave a link to @elemntsk8ter and @zvny 's posts about account security too, they do a much better job than me at explaining

If you do feel you need to check your account or change your password, never click a link in an email, always browse to secure.runescape.com and verify that your connection is secure by following the instructions in the above link

I highly recommend using Gmail as a primary email. Its spam protection is far superior to other email hosts such as Outlook/Hotmail.

another good tip is 2 delete all runescape related mail you get and only using jagexs officials emails when u log onto osrs account to check your details. i normally do this to reduce me clicking any phisin site

Hi There
Thank you for mentioning this. I thought I was the only one and that my account was being hacked. Phew! Glad to see the latter of it.
In Any Case
Make Sure You Guys Reset Your Passwords Anyways For Security Purposes.
