I have gotten an alert twice when I open google that there is a virus on my phone (iphone 7plus). How do I know this is real and get it off if it is?

thank you

JTPITGIRL13, it's important to us that you have a properly working device. Is Wi-Fi enabled on in Settings? If so, please disable it to connect to our Cellular Data network. Next, power your device off/on. Do you still get this error message?

It's not real.  Tap on the open window tab and exit all windows, then exit Google.  Or, uninstall Google and reinstall.
