Because it’s most likely a hoax. There is most likely no virus (is the phone still working?). The scammer just hopes you’ll call and pony up $. Now if the machine actually develops a problem that jeopardizes important data, then I may have a different opinion. I have received such warnings, and I just closed the window without further issues.
The phone is still working. I have restored all the Chrome updates, and the phone seems to be working perfectly now.
And also, I do not store ANY important data on the cell phone. Don't want to risk what I have to do if I were to lose the phone.
