There is nothing to worry about. If you wish you can reset your device to factory settings.

Note that this will erase the data from your device.

Take a look this Apple Support article: Use iTunes to restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to factory settings - Apple Support.

Hi. Malware or viruses for iOS do not exist. Just a scam message. There is nothing to worry about.
