I was reading a few articles and when i clicked on a link i received a pop up stating that i have a “Trojan Virus” on my phone and my apps and memory are infected. It looks suspicious but thought i should report it just to be safe. Is this Apple or Fake website?

It is a Scam. These are fake messages that you will see from a website that you may be visiting on your iPhone or a Mac or any OS based computer. Ignore them and get out of that website. The idea is to scare you into buying a service or an app to "protect you" when there is nothing wrong with your device. It is a scam.

Hello Rzate,
Clearly, this is a FAKE website. If it were real, it should have "apple.com" domain, in this case, it has yourlandsecurity, which is not owned or related to apple. Do NOT install the "trusted" app from the app store, as that will Install a Real Virus on your iPhone. You can safely ignore and close the webpage. Reporting it to apple would help as they would take down the site.
