Scams (e-mail, text messages, and phone calls) are getting very good at closely imitating true Apple communications. Always be cautious. These support articles have some guidelines:

If it is saying they will be "deleted" then very likely it is spam. If you have a full iCloud storage then if I recall correctly it will just say your items won't store or update until you either delete some or subscribe to more storage.
