We cannot tell, because the malicious JavaScript will check your device for vulnerabilities, and if there is any, will redirect you to a malicious website that can take advantage of it.

So, it is recommended not to open the attachment.

If you scanned your phone and nothing was detected, we can safely say your phone is ok. Scan your phone weekly and ensure that your antivirus software is updated daily.
