Hi @Javeria_Mehsud 

Welcome to the community. That looks like a scam, they use sense of urgency with "closure" and reply. But you should check first sender email. It is most likely a Gmail, a sure sign it is a scam.

Recognizing legitimate Shopify emails

Shopify will only send emails from official domains such as @shopify.com, @email.shopify.com, @em.shopify.com, and @shopify-billpay.melio.com. Emails from public email services such as Gmail, Yahoo, Apple mail, or Hotmail aren't from Shopify and should be treated as potential phishing attempts.

Now if you do search here or on Google you could find hundreds of topics with the same scam tactics, trademark, compliance, performance, accessibility rules and so on. There is also a few topics that in detail shows full path that scammers take until they get the money and do nothing.

Stay safe.

Hello there @Javeria_Mehsud  it’s sad how frequently merchants have been spammed with these type of emails recently, hopefully the trend comes to an end soon. Just a rule of thumb, any Shopify related mail you get from any account with “@gmail.com” is fake and most likely a scammer. Make sure to ignore and disregard all such mails.
