It's a phishing scam. Delete it and do not fill out anything. Apple doesn't send emails saying your account is locked. If your account was locked, your phone would alert you.

You're welcome. Just remember Apple never sends out emails like that. But the people who did are surely hoping you fill out the information, which would be bad.
