Don't take any action; it's a scam! Just delete the message. All they want is your personal info. As you obviously won't give it away voluntarily, they have to threaten you with something, like cancelling your account, but that won't happen.

What happens is somone registered the email address messagedata.servicese@gmail.com in order to obtain peoples account information. Any legitimate company would never ask you to email them account info like that.

Forgot to mention one clear indicator that it's a scam. No e-mail provider will ever ask you for your password. They already have it and they don't want to put you in jeopardy, asking to send it over the internet.
So if somebody asks you for your e-mail password, you have the absolute garantee that it is a scam. - Always! No exceptions!

Looks like a scam, reads like a scam, smells like a scam, so it's most probably a scam. Your best response is to say "You can have my ID, but my Password you can have it only over my dead body".. or something to that effect.
As with any scam email messages, the best response is not to respond at all, as otherwise you'll just be confirming to them that your email ID does exist, is active and that someone real is at the end of the line.
