It's a phishing attempt, a scam. I assume you're seeing this in a browser pop-up. Do not call the number. Close the window. Personally, I'd also avoid that website in the future.

Thank you. I'm sorry I included a link in my original question. My partner was freaking out, so I used my own MacBook to ask the question. It was a website he never visited before, and the audio which accompanied the popup window was something new.
He does have malwarebytes installed so we ran the scan to assure him that all was well to ignore the scam.
He is not very tech-oriented.
Thanks very much for your confirmation.
