Is my network actually in danger or is this a new low for anti virus baiting?

Hi

Please see the screen shot... Usually these things are obvious up-sell attempts like "your IP is exposed" or something but this one specifically says my router's SHH password (not regular network password) has been in a data leak.

But then the link is to a page on weak passwords... Not leaked passwords. Which obviously isn't anywhere near as serious.

Can't find another single case of this anywhere on the internet. Including AVG forum etc. Just weak password pop ups.

But hoping to deal in facts rather than presumption. Does anyone *know* rather than only being able to assume like me?

Any wisdom appreciated.

Thanks a lot
