Not sure why it says a scammers pdf when you haven’t really said what made that the case (or how you accidentally opened it unless you thought it was from someone you know or a trusted source and opened it because of that ). Did you just open it or did you download it? You are unlikely to have any issues on the iPhone related to the pdf unless your iPhone is tampered with (ie jailbroken). Be more careful in the future. Don’t download anything from an unknown source. Verify the sender is truly who it’s supposed to be (check that the email address it was sent from is legit). When in doubt don’t open it.
Opening a PDF will not compromise your phone.
