No, just one of the many scams. You can report it to Apple here, or just delete it and enjoy the rest of the day.

Hello~ Yes…it’s a scam. Click on below and review…
Report it, delete it and move on with your day. These scammers have become so prevalent now…that I treat everything as a scam until I can prove otherwise.
Tell your friends, family and colleagues about this so these scammity scam scammers have fewer targets.

Scam, Apple would never send this out/ask for any verification unless you are trying to do something with/locked out of your own Apple account
