Has anyone had their computer blocked by Apple Platform Security because my iPad was infected by trojan Spyware. It says contact a engineer at 888*** they can walk me through the removal process and don't get on any other device until this is fixed. This will prevent identity theft and will unlock access to my iPad. I don't believe it.

As said before, these are scams and there is nothing to fix. They want your money by scaring you into believing that you have a problem. Just like with the many scam emails you get, just delete and move on. Under no circumstances should you call a number and give them your Apple ID Password or financial information. With the Apple ID and Password, they could lock you out of your own device.
I didn’t believe it either but the **** thing locked up my laptop! I couldn’t get rid of it, had to shut down, lost some unsaved work. (My auto backup is every 30 minutes.) Was there a way I could’ve gotten rid of it?
How do I fix it

You could have Force Quit Safari.
I have received an Apple Security Notification saying access to my MacBook Air has been blocked. I believe this to be a scam but I can’t remove the notification from my screen. Please help!
Sorry but how do I get rid of it?
I got a Apple Platform Security alert saying my PC has been blocked for security reasons
