That is a Phishing Scam.

Apple will not send you an eMail about your account out of nowhere. Look at the domain of the eMail address: It is not apple.com.

Report this to Apple:

So, what you need to do to forward this screenshot to Apple, using this eMail address: reportphishing@apple.com. In the eMail, include a message of what this attached photo is all about: a screenshot of a phishing scam that you are reporting.

Your post is the 5th post that I have read where someone received the same email.

Apple will always address you by your name or the name they have on file for you, not Dear Customer, Dear Client or by using your e-mail address.  The e-mail will be from @apple.com or @iTunes.com. E-mail addresses can be spoofed. You can go to Mail/View/Message/Show all Headers to see more. Apple emails won't have poor grammar/misspellings. Apple e-mails will never contain an attachment. Apple will never request personal information by email such as Social Security numbers, your Mother’s maiden name or full credit card numbers . 

The only exception to the above I have noticed is if you order something from the Apple Store (apple.com), your receipt will be addressed to Dear Apple Customer. That is a receipt for a purchase you initiated.

Avoid phishing emails, fake ‘virus‘ alerts, phony support calls, and other scams.
