Facebook has started a whole slew of new security features.  This one sounds questionable. 

Did you get this when trying to log in or via an email?  If via an email then do not click on ANY links in the email.  It is in fact a hacker trying to get access to your account.

If you got it by manually logging into facebook then  odds are it's legitimate.  You'll need to work through it.
