The excellent grammar and solid sentence structure reveals that this is in fact a completely legitimate email.
THIS is why you think it is fake? Because blackmailers usually have good grammar?

That's one indicator. Scammers often use intentional spelling mistakes, bad grammar, and make other obvious mistakes in their emails, the thought being it weeds out people who pick up on these things leaving the dumb and gullible to respond.
Of course the entire premise is batshit crazy but that is one thing to look out for.
