You don't have a virus or malware. These messages are designed to get you to purchase unneeded software. Clear your cache and ignore them.

Thank you for the screenshot.


It is a Scam:

What you are reporting is a scam. So, report it to Apple (and to your federal government, if desired) modify your credentials. Use my User Tip: Using the Photos App to Report Scams - User Tips


Did you Interact with it?

If you did not interact with the messages, then you can ignore it. If you did (i.e. Provide personal info), then you may need to take thinks a step further.


Modifying your Credentials:

Having so much suspicion, consider modifying your credentials, ASAP, starting with a new password.
