Possible malware?

Hello, so I was playing a mobile game (Identity V), and somebody posted a link in the chat (identityv.tk) that was said to give you an ingame reward. I'm usually very good at detecting scam and I never believe this kind of stuff but I was really sleepy at the time and I fell into it. I entered the link on safari and it led me to a blank website. (All white with nothing on it) I refreshed a few times but nothing changed. That was when I realised what I had done and I closed the tab. I went back in the game and someone was saying it could be a keylogger or trojan. Since I knew I had already opened the website and there was no turning back, I decided to see if the website would open now, and when I tried, this time it redirected me to areyouabot.net and it said that safari couldn't establish a safe connection to the website. I closed the tab again and deleted my history & cache, but I'm afraid that blank page might've caused malware to enter the system.


I know it's highly unlikely for an iphone to get malware/virus this way, but what scared me was since this is a mobile game, that link was for mobile devices. Is it possible for them to get my data and/or access my camera? I know I'm being a little paranoid but I need some reassurance to ease my mind.

iPhone 6s, iOS 11.4
