[QUOTE="Jack, post: 600258, member: 1"] Hello [USER=59508]@Kapkhanna[/USER], Is this happening on your Android phone or on a regular PC? I think you are getting message like this? [IMG]https://malwaretips.com/attachments/beware-of-fake-virus-threats-on-your-mobile-device-png.80315/[/IMG] [IMG]https://malwaretips.com/attachments/mobile-alert-secure-intl-com-png.80316/[/IMG] Usually these type of bogus alerts are generated via a redirect or pop-up ad that can be found on questionable websites (torrents, adult content etc). Most of these type of ads recommend that you install different antivirus solutions to "fix" your issue. In most cases you do not need to take any actions because this pop-ups are from ads on different websites. The messages of the pop-up may differ: "You phone is infected", "Your phone battery is corrupt", "Your operating system is out of date". Needless to say that they are just scareware (bogus message) and you should not install the app they want. If you want to install an antivirus go with Malwarebytes or Avast Antivirus.
