Hey YellowGurl445,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. I see that you’re seeing pop-ups from the Safari app even though you have popup blocker enabled and I’d like to help.

There are certain adwares that can’t be blocked from certain websites. I advise you to avoid visiting any unknown websites and be cautious of any fake alerts that you come across.
If you come across these types of pop-ups, I recommend that you Clear the history and cookies from Safari on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
Cheers!
