I was on google chrome and this page randomly popped up saying my phone was infected with a virus. I knew it was fake so I swiped it away but just as I did that, a pop up message (that usually goes with those pages) appeared saying the same thing and I accidentally pressed ok. It didn't redirect me to anything but I was worried it could of done something to my phone. I cleared that days browser cache and did a virus scan (Nothing showed up) . Still worried it could of done something to my phone. What should I do or do I need to do anything?

Welcome. :)

Pressing OK usually leads to a page inviting you to fill in personal details, which you did not do, so you should be okay.
