security protect A notice from security protect appeared on my phone stating that my device had a virus from websites I had been on and of course wanted me to hit OK. I am assuming this is BS and phishing since the iPhone is protected from viruses. Correct?

Visited fraudulent website on IOS Safari - what next? I received a link on WhatsApp related to John Lewis web site which I entered the address for on Safari. I know it was a fraudulent site and didn’t enter any details on the page. My iPhone is not jail broken. I closed the web page and quit Safari. I also restarted my phone to be on the safe side. Could my phone or identity be compromised. Are there any other precautions I need to take with my phone.

Pop up saying iPhone was hacked I am thinking this is a scam but twice I have been playing a game on my phone. All of the sudden my phone goes into Safari. A pop up comes up from etrafficmedia.com. It reads Your iPhone has been hacked. All operations on your iPhone are being tracked by the hacker. Immediate action is required! the only option is to close and it pops up saying to click to fix and then a count down timer. I just closed the window, deleted the app I was on and cleared my browser history. Is this a scam?

A scam. Delete the message or close the web page window.

It is NOT legit. It is a scam and the scammers are attempting to trick you into buying their app products. Just chose that web page and move on. Do not provide any credentials.
