Pop ups saying my iPhone is compromised or hacked

I'm getting a bunch of pop ups in Safari when I go from Google to a website that I had searched Google for saying my "iPhone has been compromised" "my iPhone has been hacked"or "my iPhone has a virus." In my settings I have all the security settings on. I have the block pop ups on, prevent cross site tracking, hide IP from trackers, fraudulent website warning.. all of that.. So how do I make this stop??

Most Google search results are scams. Enabling your iPhone's security settings won't change that fact.


Try clearing Safari's history and website data: Clear the history, cache, and cookies from Safari on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support.
