iPhone compromised popup

i was researching something, on a secure website. i was redirected to a new one and it said “your iphone has been compromised”. i was really scared so i just closed it really quick and i didn’t get to read what it said or screenshot, is it real? i’m actually really scared right now.

No. It was not real. It was a fake warning to get you to purchase some type of useless service. You shouldn’t be scared. You closed the website window and did not enter any credentials. You are good to go.
