Hello,
I receive this kind of message: Your Google Play account has been suspended because it violates our rules, they have detected 61 viruses attacking your system. Would you like a free cleanup? or also Your account will be disabled in 3 minutes, Google indicates that after visiting an adult site (which I have never been to) your device has detected 36 viruses. It gives me a solution in 3 steps that I do not follow. Has my phone been hacked?

Hello,
I don't think so, I believe it's just a phishing attempt.

Consider blocking the sender, if possible.

Hello,
Start with something simple:
Go to the smartphone settings and clear the browser cache:
for example:
Settings > Apps > Chrome > Storage > Clear cacheThen restart the smartphone.
What one understands well is clearly stated,
And the words to say it come easily.
