FBI Warning on iPhone

I got the FBI warning on my iPhone 6 in safari. I got it to go away by just restarting the phone and then closing safari, but my question is: should I reset my iPhone completely to make sure that it is gone or is it not worth it? Hard to tell from doing an online search most of the problems seem to have happened on MacOSx or Windows.

Clear browser cache and data then reboot phone and you will be fine (reboot not required but a good idea) Also stay off porn sites and sites that you wouldn't trust .

Re: FBI Warning on iPhone

This is usually fixed by putting your phone into airplane mode (because in some cases, the pop-up won't go away) and then clearing your cache.
