how do i eliminate a pop-up for apple anti virus scans

I receive a poorly designed pop-up asking that I download Apple anti virus software. How do I eliminate it from my system so that it does not reappear?

iMac, OS X Yosemite (10.10.5)

Is this when using Safari?


Safari – Popup takes over



Safari – Popup takes over (2)



Popup remover – Scam Zapper



If the pop-up reloads, force quit Safari (command - option/alt - esc) and reopen with the shift key held down. If that doesn't work, disconnect from the Internet, go to Safari/History and delete the website. Quit and reopen with the shift key held down. Then reconnect to the Internet.
