MalWare message

I have received sever messages on my iPhone that states "MALWARE DETECTED Action Required." Is this a valid Apple Message, and if so what do I need to do about it?

Don't worry, I got this message too. It asked me to install a VPN because the "websites I have visited had given me a virus" Don't worry, it's fake. Apple will not ask you to install a third-party app to fix a virus.

What do i need to do about this message that I receive daily on my phone? Do i just ignore it, or how can I keep from getting it every morning on my phone?


Another Issue: I received an "Apple" Subscription Request for a WifiScanner. I have a 3 day free trial that I have until 3 May to change my mind on the $129.99 yearly subscription. Is this a valid apple product, and, if so, how do i ascertain whether i really need it?
