Mail from a pervert

Hello,
Has anyone received this kind of email before? I'm sending it to you translated; it’s originally in English.
" Hello pervert, I want to inform you of a very bad situation for you. However, you can benefit from it if you act wisely. Have you heard of Pegasus? It is a spying program that installs itself on computers and smartphones and allows hackers to monitor the activities of device owners. It provides access to your webcam, messaging apps, emails, call recordings, etc. It works well on Android, iOS, and Windows. I guess you've already figured out where I'm going with this. I've had it installed on all your devices for several months because you weren't very careful about the links you clicked on online. During this time, I discovered all aspects of your private life, but one is particularly important to me. I've recorded numerous videos of you masturbating to very controversial pornographic videos. Given that the "questionable" genre is almost always the same, I can conclude that you have a sick perversion. I doubt you want your friends, family, and colleagues to know about it. However, I can make that happen with just a few clicks. Every number in your contact list will suddenly receive these videos – on WhatsApp, on Telegram, on Skype, by email – everywhere. It will be a tsunami that sweeps everything away, starting with your old life. Do not consider yourself an innocent victim. No one knows where your perversion might lead you in the future, so consider this as a kind of deserved punishment to make you stop. Better late than never. I am a kind of God who sees everything. However, do not panic. As we know, God is merciful and forgives, and so do I. But my mercy is not free. Transfer 888 USD to my Bitcoin wallet: bc1q2hgxyfu863te6gaz4hq8hpehl85xlpe7y2hquz Once the transaction confirmation is received, I will permanently delete all compromising videos of you, I will uninstall Pegasus from all your devices, and I will disappear from your life. You can be sure of this: my profit is solely from the money. Otherwise, I wouldn't be writing to you, but I would destroy your life without a word in a second. I will be notified when you open my email, and from that moment you will have exactly 48 hours to send the money. If cryptocurrencies are unfamiliar territory for you, don't worry, it's very simple. Just search for "crypto exchange" on Google and it will then be no more difficult than buying useless stuff on Amazon.
I strongly advise you against the following:
) Do not reply to this email. it's your address!
) Do not contact the police. I have access to all your devices, and as soon as I know you have run to the cops, videos will be published.
) Do not attempt to reset or destroy your devices.
As I mentioned above: I monitor all your activity, so you either accept my terms, or the videos are published. Also, remember that cryptocurrencies are anonymous, so it is impossible to identify me through the provided address. Good luck, my perverted friend. I hope this is the last time we hear from each other. And a friendly piece of advice: from now on, do not neglect your online security. "
Apparently, I will be a pedophile pervert.

There are hundreds of messages similar to yours on the forum, this scam that has been around for years is very common and utterly mundane, do not respond, delete this email, forget it and move on.
