Can Apple devices be infected with trojan virus?

Can apple devices be infected with trojan virus ? I have received an email from my email address and saying that they’ve hacked into my iphone and uploaded a trojan virus where they had access to my webcam and all my activities on all my devices and have footage of me and are blackmailing me into releasing it and sharing it with my contacts if I don’t make a bitcoin payment.


I am really worried can someone help me ? Can this be true ? How can I check if my device has been hacked a iphone ? Thanks

No one, not even Apple, can scan your device remotely without your giving specific permission for remote access.
