Definitely a scam.

Do not click any of these pop-up links.

Do not call any of those phone numbers.

Close the pop-up window and avoid visiting the website that triggered them.

looked up apple support from my ipad. Called their support line and a nice lady helped me through the whole process of getting it off my screen. She also said i did the right thing by calling them and that apple does not ever lock you off your computer. She even looked at all my programs and said there was one i should get rid of and i was happy to do it. Problem solved within 10 mins. Of me calling the number. Thank you APPLE
