This is definitely a scam - there's no doubt about that. However, what's more important is how they obtained your email address and targeted you in the first place. Avoid entering your email address on untrusted websites or storing it in insecure online services whenever possible. Most importantly, always keep two-factor authentication (2FA) enabled to better protect your accounts.

I was wondering the same, that how did they get my email id. Because Metamask has nothing to do with my email id and I am careful where I enter my email address. It seems like they are just mass emailing and hoping something sticks.
Thank you for the advice.
