It's a scam. Either to try and get you to purchase worthless AV software, or to call a scammer who will fleece you for as much money as you're willing to cough up to fix nothing.
Please read:
Phony "tech support" / "ransomware" popups and web pages located at: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-8071
Thanks, I thought that was what it is. Any way to make it stop?
If the popups are coming from a particular site, stop going there. If you see them randomly, then you've likely installed adware.
MalwareBytes for Mac can clean up most of this junk.
