It is a scam message. Do not call the number and do not give them your Apple ID information or other financial data. For help in recognizing these phishing attempts and the ability to report them, follow this guide:

Just delete and move on. If this occurred while browsing the web, avoid the sites that allow this type of malicious activity.
