Help New Tablet Lenovo A10 giving Virus Warning

Hi,
I have bought my mum a new tablet for christmas a Lenovo A10. It has been working perfectly up until this evening, whilst in Chrome she has now has a virus warning message display. Im unsure if it is genuine, having searched the internet i cant find anyone else with the same issue.

There is a background message like a web page then a dialog box ontop.

The web page shows:

Your system is heavily damaged by (4) viruses!
We detect that your Lenovo A10 is 28.1% damaged from (4) harmful viruses from recent adult sites.
Soon it will damage your phones SIM card and corrupt your contacts, photos, data and apps.
If you do not remove the virus now it will cause severe damage. Here's what you need to do:
1. Tap the button and install "CM SEUCIRTY" for free on Google Play! (actual spelling)
2. Open the app to fix and speed up your browser now!

The Pop up window on says:

The page at eu.eurogoogle.com says:
WARNING!
This Lenovo A10 is infected with viruses and your browser is seriously damaged.
You meed to remove viruses and make corrections immediately
It is necessary to remove and fix now
dont close this window
***if you leave you will be at risk***

I think the spelling is wrong on the first one and obviously we havent been on any adult sites, can anyone recommend any solutions?

I have tried to upload a picture thanks in advance!

Do not tap on the button to install CM Security - it may be a scam.
If you want to use CM Security, download it from the Google App. store.
I have used CM in the past, but I found it a memory hog.
I now use 360 security ( on Google store ).

Good luck.
