First check if when you Authorize for your app in the Will be able to see field, "see your email address" is there , if not check if you have valid privacy policy and TOS URL since white listing the app is no longer required, also in php I had to Change 'include_email' : true to 'include_email' : 'true' sometime ago when I tried this, so that could be the issue.
