Fraudulent Website Warning Unavailable

Why is my fraudulent website warning (settings-safari) greyed-out? I received a ‘you’ve been hacked pop up’ which I ignored and promptly cleared my browsing history and restarted, but when I went to check this feature out (for the first time) it is in grey and won’t let me turn it on or off. I’m not sure if the attempted hack has anything to do with it. How can I make sure this isn’t related to the attack and turn it back on!

Welcome to Apple Support Communities Madawada1813,


We can definitely understanding making sure your device isn't compromised. Sounds like you may got a pop up in Safari, is that right? Is your Pop-up blocker enabled as well?


About pop-up ads and windows in Safari


We didn't see a software version tagged in your post, is your iPhone 11 running iOS 14.7.1?


Update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch


Also, is this a personal device or one managed by an employer?


Cheers!
