the heads up is appreciated but these pop-ups are more common then web pages themselves. Simply do not respond and report them directly to Apple.

additionally Apple will NEVER ask your you SSN, thats a dead giveaway of a scam.

Avoid phishing emails, fake ‘virus‘ alerts, phony support calls, and other scams
