how to scan an iphone for a virus or malware

You basically can’t; unless it’s been jailbroken, there won’t be any malware on it.

Some sites have redirects coded in the HTML. It is common for a nefarious site to have a domain name & page that appear "innocent" sounding when you see the URL, and that URL has a redirect in the header where you never see that page at all.

Redirects are handy for web authors when the change their site architecture. Bookmarks & links from other sites might become obsolete. Apple even has a few... try http://support.apple.com actually redirects to https://www.apple.com/support/

You are OK with virus/malware, but falling prey to clever thieves using very basic HTML.

Thanks I haven't jail broken it..I was concerned because while searching the internet it was directing me to different sites without selecting that actual site and doing a few other strange things..

This may be the result of being connected to a hacked network. See:
