I have had messages popping up on my phone recently warning me of viruses attacking my phone and telling me my bank details can be compromised if I ignore these warnings. Press here to continue...
Do I act on these? ignore them or report?
Has anyone else had these?

Yes- but I ignore them, they're scams.

Definitely don’t press to continue. It’s a scam
