Trojan virus

Hi. I recent received a creepy email saying a hacker has full control of my iPhone through Trojan virus. The email threaten to send out a video to all my contacts if I don’t pay $500 through bitcoin. Just want to know has anyone experience this and is this virus legit and to get rid of it ?
