All such messages are scams presented by criminals. Do not interact with the message or the sender. Lose the offending page and avoid sites that are involved in such bogus advertising tactics.

Your phone does not have a virus.

What you see is a well known scam that is trying to trick you into buying useless software that will do nothing to help your phone....or worse....provide criminals with your personal info.

Delete the message and any others like it that you might see.

NEVER click to tap on a link in a message like this.
