I don’t use an iPhone, btw. In currently using a hand-me-down Haiwei (idk if that’s spelled right).

I was trying to go to removeddit (I think that’s how it’s spelled), and typed in a reddit link with “removedit” instead of removeddit. Idk which ones right, or if that sites even still around, but I got a pop-up saying my device was compromised. I immediately exited the site and tried a virus scan, though idk if the scan worked as I’m not very tech-literate. I’ll probably ask my dad about this in the morning, but everyone’s asleep rn so idk. I’m kinda nervous, as I have some important stuff on my phone. I don’t know what to do.

Sorry if I’m on the wrong subreddit.

    Try to uninstall and reinstall your web browsers, as some sites will try to install suspicious browser extensions. If you find any extension you didn’t install, remove it or do a virus scan on your computer.
