Is there a Mac Help Support virus

I have encountered an odd error sending me a message to call Mac Help Support and has a number 1-800-313-2495 and references an error code WBACK7917. The website referenced in the message is macsupporthelp.com... Is this legit or fishing?

It's a scam. If it prevents you from using Safari, choose Force Quit from the Apple menu, close the application, and then launch it with the Shift key held down. If that doesn't work, temporarily disconnect the computer from the Internet.

If that message continues to appear, click here and run Adware Medic. You may need to use a different web browser.
