I am experiencing a pop-up stating Back Door Virus Detected. This occurs intermitantly. I am using OS ver. 10.11.6, Chrome ver. 60.0.3112.101. I have cleared the browser history and cache. Does anyone have a suggestion to remove this pop-up.
iMac (21.5-inch, Late 2015), iOS 10.3.3
A web browser has no way of knowing if you do, or don’t, have a virus installed. Since there are no Mac viruses in the wild, it’s safe to say you do not have a virus.
This is a scam. Don’t click on any links or call any phone numbers. Quit your browser, clear it’s history and web data, and don’t visits sites that generate such scams.

It is a scam. If you use Safari as your browser please go to Safari - Preferences - Extensions and add AdBlock and the popups will disappear.
