User level: Level 1 (4 points)Using an anagram finder app on my iPhone X. Screen pops up from Apple Platform Security. They have detected wiretapping on my phone, want me to click on “run test”. URL shows as safenetgroup.site. I think it’s a scam, haven’t touched anything.

Definitely a scam.
The scammers just used the phrase "Apple Platform Security" in the hopes that you would think their message was from Apple or had anything to do with the real Apple Platform Security .

Of course it is a scam.
By the way, the app that you were using was paid to display the message that you saw. That might tell you something about the quality of the app.
