Today I was on my phone just surfing Internet just looking at some websites and one of them redirected me to a website that looks like a Google warning page telling me that I have 4 viruses and I should get this antivirus. But I have Avast! Antivirus on my phone so I think this site is a scam. Edit: I have added a screenshot of the site.

There's literally millions of those. Just close them. If you're any kind of tech literate then you know that your browser telling you that you have viruses is always fake.
