After not playing for nearly two months, I logged in today to find this PM from over a week ago.

Should I be alarmed by this?

No, do not be alarmed. Look at the bottom of every mail you EVER get. If it was sent by a player (not a mod or dev or member of Anet) it will have the message that you see in that picture.
Likely that is a stolen account with a generic bot sending out messages. What ever you do DO NOT follow the link they provide. You will likely get your account stolen and it will turn into a bot account.
Simply report the mail as a bot or a scam in the ingame interface and ignore the person who sent it.

Just a filthy Casual, move along.

Possibly. You missed the bottom of the game mail with the exclamation point. So your powers of observation aren’t quite the best. Otherwise no need for panic.

Exactly. It’s pretty easy to notice it’s a fake, since it’s written in yellow at the bottom that the message was NOT sent by Anet.
