Iphone will be hacked warning

I got a warning while browsing in safari that “iphone will be hacked. Click to download” and then there were two options one to install and one to cancel. I accidentally clicked cancel and took me to the app store. I am scared if this threat is real?

iPhone XS Max, iOS 13

It is a spam, simply ignore.


iOS / iPadOS devices cannot be hacked or infected with Virus / Malware / Spyware, unless you have intentionally downloaded spurious softwares or unauthorised apps directly from internet and installed on your device or/and have Jail Broken. 

It (Hacking) also depends on how careful are you in sharing sensitive and valuable informations of your iPhone such as Passcode, Password etc with your friends and family members.


Be careful when sharing the device's sensitive and valuable informations with friends and family members.
