Apple Care virus pop-ups in macbook

Guys please help me ! While i was on my MacBook Air 11 inch (early 2014) surfing the wed a warning popped-up about apple care. It had the logo of apple care and said that i have one spying program and two trafficking ones on my MacBook and that there is a 27.8 percent danger. Has this occurred to anyone ? Please help me because i don't know what to do. Should i talk about this with apple, or should i just assume that it is a scam ?


Thank you for reading,

Nick

Yes, it's a known scam. There are no viruses that affect Mac OS and no one can know what's on your Mac, not even Apple. Disregard it.
