FACT: You were on the Internet.
Translation: A fake popup appeared.
Nothing was infected because a popup from a website does not have the ability to access your system files, modify them, then demand payment to remove something that never existed.
This is a scam!!

Hello,
Yes, anything not on an Apple website saying it’s Apple is most likely a 100% scam. Do not click any suspicious links or give them any information. Hope this helps!
Thank you! I was suspicious and did not “click” link. It looked more real than in the past and wasn’t sure. Thank you!
