Every time I visit DU on my iphone I get Phished w/ "You have a virus! Click to solve" from "Apple" [View all]

so I called Mac help and explained what was happening and asked what they would recommend.

Mac help says that the update, which I have put off having heard it slows everything down, should solve that. So I finally bit the bullet and am downloading the update now. I was running 10.3

Also I learned that Mac now recommends users install Malwarebytes from Malwarebytes.org.

I sure hope I don't regret this update!

She also suggested that I let DU know that there's a Phishing attempt placed on the website.
I'm going to do that now.

Good luck out there good people, aloha.
