Plenty of variations on the 'we are closing your account' types of scam here in the 'Latest Phishing News'

and in other previous phishing news updates

Re: Closing old emails mailbox

Hi @PapaDee

 

Thanks for posting on our community forum!

 

As per the above article this scam is quite common, if the email is attached to an old broadband account which is now disconnected it would be shut down in due course though.
