iCloud Account will be suspended

I keep getting emails that state "iCloud Account suspended - Act Now." It has a link and wants me to update my information. The sender is M*****g@m****e.c**.f**cheat.com. It has an Apple copyright at the bottom of the email. Is this a scam or real?

They're fake. Forward them to reportphishing@apple.com as attachments and then delete them.

If an Apple Account actually gets locked or disabled, its owner will be told when they try logging into it instead of through email.
