Am I hacked? (received an email from my own emailaddress)

Hi,

I received an email presumably send from my own emailaccount, subject 'You've been hacked' starting with

'I want to inform you about a very bad situation for you. However, you can benefit from it, if you will act wisеly. Have you heard of Pegasus? This is a spyware program that installs on computers and smartphones and allows hackers to monitor the activity of device owners. It provides access to your webcam, messengers, emails, call records, etc. It works well on Android, iOS, macOS and Windows. I guess, you already figured out where I’m getting at.'

Etc.

So the content of the email doesn't worry me, but what I can't understand is why the e-mail is send from my account. Or why it looks like it is send from my account. It doesn't show any other address.

When I check Source of the message, the following pops up, but this to me is jibberisch... Can anyone explain to me why it looks like I send this to myself and if I indeed been hacked or not?

Thank you!

    I received the same email so this was incredibly helpful! I even checked the account activity and was SHOCKED to see at least 40 to 50 unsuccessful sign in attempts only in the past 3 to 4 days - from quite literally all across the world!

    Definitely changing password and enabling two factor authentication.

    I also received the same email with the same content via my own email account and it went to my spam folder. Unfortunately, there is no option to report it and delete. I changed my password, also checked the 2FA was also enabled. I also chcked my recent login activity: these are all from multiple countries but all these are unsuccessful attempts.

    I have also clicked on signed out from other devices.

    Now wondering what to do next???
