I will definitely ignore it. I think such scams are very common as pop-ups, even when you go to some reputable websites, these kinds of pop-up ads still exist. Common examples are those saying that your storage is full, your phone is infected with virus, or you are the winner of some big prize. If you believe these messages, you will most likely be led to provide your private information or install some very bad malware. We would be able to dispel these kinds of scams with common sense and basic information literacy: how could a website in the browser somehow have access your data without your authorizatiob and perform a virus scan in an instant to know that your phone has a virus? It’s simply not possible and fake.
