  1. Also, I would change all of your passwords that use that password to be safe.
  2. I am pretty sure this email is not a virus or malware. I received the exact same email but it was a password for something from a super old account. I don't even have a webcam. Almost every email has been compromised at one point or another, depending on how many websites you sign up for or places you shop online. Sometimes your passwords get spread around on the internet. These email scams use that old information to scare you into thinking you're actually infected and try to blackmail you. Here's a website with information on companies / websites that have been breached and if your email has been affected:https://haveibeenpwned.com/ If you've received the exact same email, it would have been tied to the same Bitcoin address (but perhaps there are variations). Here's a link to Bitcoin Abuse database that shows the scammer has tried this scam multiple times: https://www.bitcoinabuse.com/reports/1GAdm1HyyN9mAdx7j9WzfJyFtiiWbHNirF I wouldn't worry about it, but it's always good to make sure you run a scan on your PC every once in a while.
