Hello everyone.

Today, I was watching porn on my iPhone 6s when i clicked on a link that send me to a blank page. After waiting for the page to load, a message popped up on the screen saying "get lost Motherf*@#$r -- you got hacked". My phone is not jail-broken or anything. This has me a bit paranoid after hear about people's iPhone being hacked and data and camera used. Is there anyway to make sure i wasn't hacked or is it too late?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
 
Do a restore or backup (prior to the inncident) if you're that concerned.

I have never heard of an non-jailbroken iPhone being compromised unless it's through an app.
 
Lol. I'm willing to bet it was just a random pop up page, similar to other ones you get by clicking on porn sites in a normal web browser that try to scare you or install malware. Just ignore it or if you really really feel the need, restore.
 
Afterwards install a app called:
Clean explorer, it blocks ads and trackers.
Might help you

iPhones have been remotely accessed even if not jailbroken..Pegasus. Be sure not to mention that on the Apple Community Support page..you’ll be banned.
