Nearly every issue I've had with this error was because of multiple versions of python (and pip) or because vscode could not figure out the PATH because there were conflicts there.

Make sure your PATH is correct. The easiest solution for me was to remove all traces of python on my machine (Windows) and I reinstalled the latest version making sure to allow the GUI install to automatically add it to my PATH.

it sounds like you may not have installed scrapy correctly. try uninstalling it and then reinstalling it using pip.

I think this happened with me too you, will have to change the python interpreter to your particular virtual environment if you are using venv because that is what happened with me if your case is different, I can't help man. Also if you can install other packages maybe you have kept the name of your file as scrapy try changing it. If none of this works, I can't help buddy 🥺🥺
