If you are not using a VPN, this pop-up is a scam.


Close pop-up ads


Start by closing any pop-ups that are open.


  • If you see a Block Alerts button after dismissing a pop-up on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, tap the button to stop showing alerts from that webpage.

If a pop-up won't close:


  • On your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, force Safari to close. To prevent Safari from automatically reopening any windows, go to Settings > Safari, then tap Clear History and Website Data. This also removes your browser history and cookies.
