I accidentally downloaded and opened a file online (117 B html) that grabbed my IP address and wants bitcoin or else they will leak my info. I was not doing anything particularly illegal, but should I be worried that someone now has access to my phone?

I'm kind of panicking right now but I'm not too sure what I should do.

The file size did not change as I opened it, but idk what my best plan of action is.

Any advice? (besides calling me stupid - ik)
