HELP - is this BS? Popped up on daughter’s phone.

[ssledoux]

My daughter had this pop up on her phone. It seems like a scam, but she’s concerned.

Anyone seen this?

Bogus advertisement meant to trick someone into purchasing a VPN. She should use an adblocker.

Obviously false. Say I, the stranger on the internet. One could have just asked Apple but I’m delighted to have a say.

I get messages similar to this from time to time, especially when I'm on some random fan wiki type of site. I just close the tab.

Could not be more of a scam. Don't click anything and just close that web page.

Happens a lot on porn sites...... so I’m told😎

The English syntax and grammar are also giveaways.

"is already having", "AppStore", "otherwise, the device".

Scam.

Definitely a scam. It it happens again forward a screenshot to Apple. They probably wouldn’t like that!
