Its a scam. Apple will never send such emails.


If your Apple ID is ever locked, Apple will notify you via a system message on a Mac or iOs device, or iTunes on a PC when you try to make use of a service such as the iTunes store.


They'll never send an email, and they'll never require you to verify billing information on a website. Billing information is always verified in your Apple ID settings on an iOS device or iTunes on a Mac or PC.


You can report the email to reportphishing@apple.com
