It has the following text "Following unknown links leaves your phone and personal data vulnerable. By tapping OK, you agree that you are solely responsible for any damage to your phone or loss of data that may result from following this link"

There are no messaging settings that turn this off.

I was only able to find one thing from an S5 question and the solution was unchecking a setting while in safe mode? no idea how to do that on the S6 but i don't really want to have to if i can avoid it.

I'm on AT&T btw and am running 5.1.1.
 
It's a warning... Samsung covering their end - just be careful what you link yourself to!

I remember, back in the day, when executable files were first embedded into digital image files. It's crazy what is possible these days!

And Samsung knows it...
