Notification in title has shown up twice on iphone. Full text says- Your iPhone has been hacked. All operations on your device are being tracked by the hacker. Immediate action is required!

OK

First time I turned phone off, left it off for 12 hours. That was last week. Showed up again an hour ago. Turned off again.


Did not press OK!

Yeah; scam.


If that pop-up is really stuck, force-quit Safari, and use Settings to erase saved Safari data.

To avoid these, turn on pop-up blocking if not already enabled, and maybe get an ad blocker.
