I Hope you didn't pay them. It's a scam.
Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History and Website Data. Close Safari by double tapping the home button and swipe up on the Safari preview. Tap the home button and force restart the iPad. Hold down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time until the Apple logo appears on the screen.
