Just because a message appears does not mean that it is true. The message was not from Apple.


Your phone is not hacked. You saw a message that was trying to trick you into buying useless software that would not do anything to help your phone.....but it would slow it down....and.....put money in the pockets of the scammers selling this junk.


Ignore any messages like this that you might see. Just keep working.
