No, your phone has not been hacked. All such messages are scams presented by criminals. Close the offending page and avoid sites that are involved in such bogus advertising tactics.

It’s a rubbish advertisement.


Lots of rubbish around; apps, advertisements, “news”, and otherwise.


You’ve already seemingly installed an add-on VPN app, and far too many of those are just hilarious privacy-sucking trash.


That a add-on VPN client app might even insert trash ads wouldn’t surprise, either.


This is all the modern equivalent of snake oil: Biff’s Magic Security Elixir and Not-At-All-Snake-Oil Juice will repel all “hackers”, prevent all “viruses”, and even prevent minor stomach aches! Order now!


More seriously…


Ignore the pop-up advert you’re presently reading.


If you’re not connecting into the internal network of an organization you’re affiliated with, remove the add-on VPN client app.
