I have an iPhone 11 and this morning I opened a weird email from someone named Jess that was in German... I opened it before the email fully loaded because the subject had a word I use for my password. Safe to say I’m kinda paranoid now. Could my phone be hacked just by opening the email?? It didn’t contain a link or anything. I also googled some of the words in the email. Thank you in advance.

In this Case:
Your iPhone would not be hacked, unless is were jailbroken, itself.
If you use a unique word for you password, it would be wise to modify your eMail account's password. Also, use unique passwords - all different for each account on different sites.

Delete the email and don't click on any links in it.
Nothing to worry about.
My iPhone isn’t jail broken. I changed my email and Apple ID password just now just to be safe
Thank you!
