Recently I had 2 emails from the same person, the 1st. Email reads in the Subject bar; “put it in your email address book”, when open, it reads “Activate”, I open the 2nd. Email, it was a relation of mine I never had any contact with her before.
Curiosity was itching and I clicked to activate her 1st. email, a page open to fill my personal details and I binned her email.
Days later I replayed to her 2nd. Email, hours later I noticed it came back as a Mailer Daemon, I posted again and was back quicker then I could blink.
My question/s is, when I clicked “activate” can she/they enter my computer at any anytime, or do they know when I start my Computer or turn off my computer?, or reading any emails I send and receive?.
I changed my email address/password a week ago, would she/they know this too ?, reading all my emails I receive and send too?,

I recently I had a new hard drive, 3 important disk I have not loaded yet.
But if they where able to get into my computer, I prefer to perform a complete system restore, or purchase a new hard drive, I also had a white envelope, I clicked and was gone?

Opinions suggestions I would appreciate,
