The email you received is referred to as an advanced fee or 419 scam. You should consider your bank account compromised, and should contact your bank immediately. You should also consider closing your current account and opening a new account, as you have given, the criminals, your account information and they can now withdraw funds at will.

I have recived your mail and take action regarding bank account after that please advice me now what i will do .

If you have not had money transfered out of your account, then you don’t have to take any further steps with your bank. Since, your bank is now aware that you may be a victim of fraud, they should be monitoring your account for suspicious activity. As you appear to be in Pakistan, I can’t advise you on the appropriate course of action under Pakistani law, you will need to consult Pakistani law enforcement.
