I received this email today but the format of the email looks nothing like my normal apple emails and the location at the bottom is incorrect. Is this a hacker? If so apple needs to send out a warning to users.

It is phishing. Apple will never threaten to disable your account. 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.

You mean notify users like this? -->Identify legitimate emails from the App Store or iTunes Store - Apple Support
Millions, if not billions, of users receive fraudulent emails every day, and not just about Apple devices. If you can think of a way to notify all of them to not fall for scams and then assure that they don't you would become a hero.
Apple will always address you by name. They also know how to properly construct and punctuate English sentences. That email is a scam.
Is this a real apple issue or is someone trying to hack my account?
