It is a phishing attempt. Do not respond. Do not divulge any personal or financial information. You can use the address below to forward the suspect email message, as an attachment to Apple.
The link below has information to help identify fraudulent emails.
They are scams, do not respond. In a message Apple will always address you by your real name, never by your email address or Dear Customer. Also the sent-from address should be @apple.com or @itunes.com Additionally Apple does not send attachments.

Forward it as an attachment to reportphishing@apple.com
Those emails are not from Apple. They are phishing scams. Your account has not actually been hacked unless you followed the link in the emails and supplied your account information to the scammers. See Avoiding Phishing Scams.
