Keep getting phishing and spam notifications (threats blocked by Netgear Armor)

Dear forum,

 

Yesterday, inadvertently I opened an email which suppossedly contained a virus/malaware on my iPhone XS Max connected to my Orbi WiFi Home Network. Since then I keep receiving notifications from Netgear Armor that 9 threats have been blocked... All of them being either for Phishing or Spam and all of them being generated by my iPhone device.

 

The sites that generate such alerts are:

 

Phishing:

http://s1.node103.iifab.com:3333/api/smartlink

http://clicks.rtad.io/tracking/click

 

Spam:

https://go.coralsands.xyz

 

All those sites suppossedly were found on my iPhone.

 

I have already deleted the history and website data from my iPhone as well as blocked Pop-ups, however, the spam and phishing threat alarms keep being reported by Netgear Armor (at 12:50 PM, 01:39 AM, 2:20 AM, 07:59 AM and the last one received at 08:11 AM)...

 

I have tried to find any related information on the www without any luck so far and I am worried that my iPhone somehow got infected with a virus, malaware, etc.; so before resorting to wiping out all the data on my iPhone (to factory settings) before restoring it to the latest backup I have; I wanted to double check first with you and see what else can be done?

 

Thanks for taking the time to read such a long post and I hope to hear back from you soon.

 

Any comments are more than welcome!

 

Best regards.
