5 billion search scam
My iPhone showed the "5 billion search scam" and then a malware alert popped up. What can I do?
I tried to remove the safari app to reinstall. I don't think it removed it all.
iPhone XR, iOS 15

Tap the overlapping squares icon in the bottom right of Safari, then close that Safari tab. The malware alert is just a pop up hoping you’ll install something or click a link, ignore it and move on.. don’t tap anything inside the popup. Most of these “malware” popups use the JavaScript functionality in an advertisement so it might be a good idea to install an adblocker.
