How to fix my iPhone 6 plus if my IOS has been hijacked

My iPhone's iso was hijacked and I keep having a popup telling me my IOS has crashed and to call a number to get it fixed, I'm sure they want money to do it. How can I get rid of this?

It sound like your going to need to do a factory restore to fix it. Put your iPhone in DFU mode and do the restore from your computer. Hope this helps

Change your passwords and passcodes!
As far as I know, Apple does not give you a pop up like that!

First of all, make sure that you’re running the latest version if iTunes. Then, just put your device in DFU mode and connect it to your computer/iTunes. It will download the latest iOS and install it for you. Good luck.

If jail broken you need to change your ssh passcode

Lol I've been hearing this a lot lately. Go into your settings, Safari, clear website data - it's that simple
