Was I hacked??

i Was checking out 123movies when a page came up from “Apple” saying that it was an unsecure page and I needed to download this protection app or my phone would be hacked and it said I had 5 minutes before this would happen...

How do I know if that message was really from Apple?? Or was that just a hack as well?

iPhone 8

All such messages are scams. Close the offending page and avoid sites that are involved in such bogus advertising tactics.
