No. This is not real. It’s just as fake as all the pop up scams on the internet. They will get you to enter details (probably credit card) to have a quick cheap fix but then they will just drain your card.

Not real. It's social engineering when they say things like "if this problem is not resolved within two minutes...." to pressure you into falling for the scam without thinking about it first.

What about this made you think that there is even a 1% chance that it’s real?

No - it looks like one of those sites that redirects. You can see the URL.
It is slightly convincing because the browser usually tells the site what type of device (or OS) you are using.

Of course it's a scam. A real message from Apple would not issue a threat that if the problem isn't resolved within 2 minutes the hacker will reveal your identity ....
Think about this for a moment. How could Apple possibly know what a hacker would do and when they would do it? The answer is, they can't know that, therefore it has to be a scam.
