This scam tries to get you to think your domain name is expiring. Of course if you look closely it will have your domain name but the wrong extension. (ie the notice up above says that you need to get our website magnetiks.com up to date or it is gone.  But if you look closely under the phone number it reads www.MAGNETIKS.us –> which is not the same as .com ).

If you get things in your email that you are unsure of, always call or email your registrar where you legitimately purchased your domain name.  They are happy to answer those questions to ensure your loyalty to them.
