Got this email last night. It basically said I was banned for dealing in-game Gold.
The account it was sent to, wasn't even remotely related to GW2.
I immediately inspected the link and dat scam revealed itself!

We have a big thread on our official forums about this, including tasty (well, ok, not-so-tasty) samples of the phishing attempts. Here's the thread: https://forum-en.guildwars2.com/forum/support/account/A-Note-about-Phishing-Emails-1/first#post2074388
If you ever want to send over a potential addition to our "sampler," you can post it here (but kindly remove all the sketchy links first ;) ): https://forum-en.guildwars2.com/forum/support/account/e-Mail-from-ArenaNet-Please-read-merged/first#post1807876
Thanks again. We all need to be careful and cautious with emails.
Alright "ArenaNetSupportTeam", if that is your real name. The jig is up! We all know those are links to phishing websites!
Dang, the jig is up. Here I am posting and gasp! sending you to the official forums! Definitely a sketchy act on my part. ;)
