Hello,
Sadly, these types of emails have become popular lately. Your information such as full name, email address, password, and phone number was obtained following a breach of a third-party website or service such as Adobe or LinkedIn. The scammer is using your leaked information to frighten you into paying them.
Change your password and ignore these messages as they are only threats. You will still receive these messages even if you pay.
You can search where your email account information was leaked using the search feature on this website: https://haveibeenpwned.com/
Please be aware that the scammer uses a third-party email spoofing service to make it appear as if the email was sent to your account. There should not be malware on your computer and no one should have logged into your account.
Hope this helps!
