Did I break the law? What's going to happen to me now?

I was on some Indian porn site and clicked on a secret cam video. Both of the couple on the thumbnail looked like adults and I'm pretty sure they were. As soon as I tapped it on my phone some message popped up saying 'You have been accused of breaking UK law' basically it's telling me that I've been trying to view child pornography and ****. What do I do now? What's going to happen to me? If I've 'broken the law'. I'm terrified- I've done nothing wrong. EDIT: this was some serious note. I'm so scared.

Sorry, you're gonna have to spend the rest of your life behind bars.
Do you honestly think that they tell suspected paedophiles that they are investigating them?

It is called spam.

The Police Cyber teams have better things to do than get you arrested for doing **** all. They are busy trying to break into online paedophile rings and the deep web nodes.

I know that the government checks up on what we are doing on the Internet. How can I trust if it was some real note or not? Why would a porn site out a note up like that? They wouldn't want to scare people off
Oh no its just a virus/spam and a very common one.
Dont worry, you havent broken the law. There are so many threads about this virus/spam so check them out if you are still worried.

Pop up messages are rife on dodgy porn sites whether they are advertising gambling or scaring people.

Use safe sites and ad blocker.
