You may want to try signing in to your Apple "My Support" webpage:

The status of any support cases can be checked there.

As you feel unsure about the email, you are likely wise to trust those doubts:

Apple provides an address to forward suspicious emails to: reportphishing@apple.com.

If you’re on a Mac, you can select the email and choose Forward As Attachment from the Message menu.
