Should I be concerned if I receive a spam email that contains the first 3 and last four digits of my phone number, with the middle 3 being replaced with X's? (lemmy.ml)

I haven't opened the email, I'm just looking at the preview that gmail provides and it contains the name of my email with the first character missing and most of my phone number, like I stated in the title of my post. How concerned, if at all, should I be and is there anything I should be doing?

It was a pw that was from a breach. Like most people I used to use the same pw for everything. Now I use bitwarden and love it
