Hello,
If you see Zeus warning on your iPad, do not call the number it provides. You are dealing with so-called tech support scammers. These people usually rely on adware applications to direct users to scam sites like these. Zeus is an old virus, back from 2007, and it was discontinued from 2010. However, many crooks abuse the well-known virus in tech-support scam schemes. Therefore, if you see one (or more), you need to make sure you ignore the fake alert and look for adware on your device.
Adware usually enters machines when users install freeware or shareware on their computers. Its presence might not immediately be apparent, and some might struggle with its elimination. To remove Zeus virus fake alert, better scan your device with anti-virus software that focuses on potentially unwanted program removal.
