Hi, I just got a message on Goole Chrome on a new window that opened automatically, saying that a virus was detected in my system. The message is supposed to come from Apple Care Protection Plan, the url looks like real, but... is it real or is it a scam?
I'm running High Sierra on a MacBook Air I just bought last week. I paste a screen capture below.
Thanks for any advice!
MacBook Air, macOS High Sierra (10.13.6)
