Hello,
While on Safari and Facebook I got a browser message that a virus has been detected on my MacBook Pro. The address and a picture included. I have never seen this before. I did not click on continue or take any steps. Closed it and came to find out if it is legit! Help!
Here is the web address it was showing:

It is a scam. Disregard. Macs do not get viruses and no one can know what is on your Mac, not even Apple

It is impossible to determine such things from the Internet. Not even Apple can determine you have a Virus from OUTSIDE your computer.
That is not from Apple. If you look at the web Address, that file is on an Internet site named:

Thank you!! I assumed it was. I have never had this happen before. I have been on Mac's for 10 years now and never this. So frustrating.
It's just from some infected website that you visited, no need to worry.
I asked for the url to be edited so no one clicks on it.
Thank you! I thought I had saved it without it being a link but apparently it didn't work. Thank you!!
You're welcome.
