Every so often, I'll get a call from a family member or friend asking about a strange and concerning warning that popped up on their Mac. The messages are typically ominous and warn that the machine in question may have been infected with a virus. Other messages, meanwhile, masquerade as legitimate messages from Apple Support and scare users into calling a fake customer support hotline.

Suffice it to say, Apple doesn't contact people through browser pop-up windows, which is to say you'll want to completely ignore these types of security alerts if one happens to pop up on your computer.
