This is 100% phishing scam. Please don't click on any link on the email and don't engage.

A legitimate email from Microsoft regarding your account always comes from domains ending in @accountprotection.microsoft.com

Also, your account is not closed simply because you don't update it. It can be closed if you don't use it for 2 years or more due to inactivities.
