My Firefox app on my i phone brings up a message that says, " Your i phone has been hacked and 78 viruses have been found!" It says I have go to a link to get instructions to remove all viruses. I know it is a scam, so I will not go to the link. Can anyone tell me how to fix this?

Hi

I recommend that you clear your browsing history.

I wonder if this is a fake web push notification from a site you allowed to send you notifications.
