It is just another scam number. Apple will never pop-up dialogs in any browser, or contact you via email for this nonsense. If you wife called them, gave them money, and the means to access her Mac, then nothing is sacred any longer on her Mac — including any personal, email contacts, and banking information. I would perform a clean installation of her Mac for complete peace of mind, and avoid the web site where this occurred.
