So in summary, I should not worry about the notification? 99% chance it is a fraud and untrue?

If your iPad is not jailbroken, it is 100% fraud and untrue. There's nothing to worry about. Just clean Chrome temporary files (cache) and be done with it.

No. 100%.

If I did not already answer that question then I do not understand what you are asking. Those scams are not limited to Apple products. They can appear on anything — any Mac, PC, or mobile device — that runs any JavaScript-enabed web browser.

Website history will normally include many sites you do not explicitly load. The vast majority will be the sites that host advertisements. You can tap Edit and remove those you do not want to appear, or clear all of them by scrolling down and tapping Remove All Website Data. It's up to you.

If you use iCloud, and another device that uses iCloud, Safari will share your Safari viewing history among those devices.

An advertisement from PayPal or any other site does not necessarily mean you visited that site. It merely means data was loaded from it. There is no way to retroactively determine what that data was. Bear in mind that Google Chrome exists for the sole purpose of delivering advertisements specifically tailored to your Internet activity, so you can expect a lot of that to occur. If that sort of thing bothers you don't use Google products, which includes YouTube as well as Chrome.
