LinkedIn InMail from Recruiter

Hey,

I received this email earlier today:

We are representing the market leader in virtual deal room (VDR) software. VDRs are rapidly growing and used by organizations participating in the diligence process (venture, i-bank, private equity, merge) as well as other areas that deal with confidential information which needs to be collaborated upon. This organization is a 60+ year old private company who is multinational and multi-billion in revenue. They are seeking a account management professional interested in growing their career and skills. Base salary would be $65-76k ($US) with bonus/commission opportunities. Position would be located in Big City (Germany). Wonderful culture and work environment. Your LinkedIn profile is a great fit. Would you be open to speaking with me? Thanks for your consideration and time and hope to speak with you soon. Best, (Name)

Weird thing is that I haven't even graduated from university. It clearly says on my profile that I'm an intern.

Don't really know how to respond to this?
