Yes, it's phishing. Apple will never send you emails telling you your account has been closed or threatening to do so.
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.
Avoid phishing emails, fake 'virus' alerts, phony support calls, and other scams - Apple Support
Forward it as an attachment to reportphishing@apple.com
Additionally, you can also see that your account has not been locked by going to https://www.icloud.com and logging in.
