I was browsing some websites when I got a pop-up message saying my iPhone has been hacked. Is that even possible?

Searching on google and got a pop up message “ your iPhone has been hacked all your actions on the device are tracked by a hacker immediate action is required.” Word for word is what it said then to click ok but I did not I closed it and powered down my phone. Should I be concerned does this happen on a Apple product? I’m afraid to open any of my apps especially my bank app if they can follow along therefore seeing my password!!! WTH APPLE!!! What is going on??????
