Q: Safari has a security error pop up and says call 1-888-997-6731. How can i clear the error

If you’re on a Mac, choose Force Quit from the Apple menu, close Safari, and then launch it with the Shift key held down. If the message reappears, disconnect the computer from the Internet and erase that site from the browser history.

If you’re on an iOS device, click here and follow the instructions in the first paragraph of the last section.
