It's called phishing and they are just trying to get your personal information. Forward a copy of the email to the abuse department for their Internet provider and then deleted the email. It's one of the most common frauds on the Internet.

Don't do it - it's fake, and a scam. I can tell you that from experience because I have gotten those emails before. Just delete them.
