Scam Notification?

I opened my phone this morning and had a Notification that my location was being tracked by an Apple AirTag and I could get more information in FindMy. I touched the notification and it l took me to a page that said I was being tracked by an AirTag since 11::33 am and the Tag might be on something I borrowed. The page had a “continue “ button-which I did not do, having become suspicious. Instead I closed the page and went to FindMy independent of the notification-and there was no notification there.

Should I be worried my phone has been hacked? How do I check?

iPhone 12 mini, iOS 16
