Infected with Trojan Spyware??

I received a notice that my MAC has been infected with Trojan spyware and that my passwords are compromised.

the notice leaves me a phone number to call, but I am reluctant to trust it.

All such messages are scams presented by criminals. Close the offending page and avoid sites that are involved in such bogus advertising tactics. Do not call any number presented. Do not interact with the message or the sender. Do not download anything based on such bogus messages.
