Getting "URGENT Action Required - Your certificate renewal" emails, but certificate has status "Issued" in AWS ACM console

Question

Hi.

I have gotten repeated emails with subject "URGENT Action Required - Your certificate renewal"; instructing me to renew my ACM certificates. However the certs are appearing as "Issued" in AWS ACM console. 
I suspected this was a scam email, but it looks good (email address: no-reply-aws@amazon.com) and contains specific info about the domain of the cert.

Anyone know why this is being sent, or what else I can do to check the status of my certs?

Thanks.

Hi, You have to go one step deep and click on the certificate to see the "Expires In" section to know the number of days left for cert expiration.
If its in near term, you have to renew the same.
