He is claiming to have access of my entire Device and access to my messenger, social Accounts and and personal data and also shared a screenshot of my File explorer in which I'm uninstalling doubtful App from my PC.
      Is it just a scam or Do I have to do something?

    Anytime you get an email like this, just look for the obvious stuff.
    In my case, I didn't have:
    A webcam like they said.
    A virus. My anti virus would have detected it.
    I did have a bad password so I wasn't exactly surprised when I got "hacked".
    It did however remind me to change my password.

    got a similar one on February 28, 2021, and based on what i saw on the internet some other ppl got the exact same email i did at around the same time
    just writing this bc i didn’t see any comments mentioning this specific email wave, just so other ppl who got this specific email know it wasn’t just them.
