The included links are not Apple links. Do not respond to the email. Report the phishing attempt to Apple at reportphishing@apple.com

This is not a virus, it's just an e-mail message. The message is a phishing attack, meaning that it is an attempt to get you to click a link and provide confidential information to a malicious site. (The ggtaxi.am links no longer appear to work, but if they did, they would undoubtedly show a page looking very much like an Apple page, asking you for your Apple ID and password.

As long as you didn't click any of the links, you're fine. Delete the message and forget about it.
