extortion emails

I've received three in the last three days. The first two were copied to abuse@comcast.net.   They were from outlook.com. I received the same form email from Comcast security. Are these emails investigated?  The third email went to my junk folder. Is anybody else getting them? Also I noticed the phishing emails for various things have been occurring over the last three days.

Hackers can hack into webcams without the light showing it’s on. You won’t even know it. They sell them at Best Buy but u can just tape heavy paper over it if u need to remove it.

First I have read about "cover your webcam." Please tell me why, thank you.

I was advised to report to FBI! Does state DOJ have an address to which one can forward the disturbing emails? FBI asks one to fill out a long form with all sorts of information; I declinded that method. Also, thought Xfinity was supposed to track these emails and place them in Spam folder

Do I just forward these two emails to abuse@comcast.net?
