    If the URLs are truly forums.digitalpoint.com there's nothing to worry about, it's not phishing.

    Although if somebody knows your email password, then they can also get the DP password.

    Someone requested your password, you should see if a admin can check the requesting IP for you against other accounts.

    to be on safe side, change both gmail and DP password to combo characters/numbers and very long and different ones
    (make sure to note down new ones though)

    Change your Gmail Secret Question, DP Passwords and if possible even your Dp Email ID
