Msg "Need updated of flash player"

When I go to view certain videos using Safari I get a message that I need an updated version of FlashPlayer even though I have the latest version. This has happened with Mac OSX 10.6 up through 10.11. The same videos play correctly if I use FirefFox.

MacBook Pro (17-inch Mid 2009), OS X El Capitan (10.11.3)

A genuine alert that Flash is outdated and blocked is shown on this page. Follow the instructions on the page in that case. Otherwise, the alert is not trustworthy and someone may be trying to scam you into installing malware. If you see fake update prompts on more than one website, or if you've already followed one of the fake prompts, please ask for instructions.
