How to fetch data from another server using AJAX

Question

I need to fetch the data from one of my files located at different url.Here is the code that shows the ajax request sent to the server

<script>
    alert('return sent');
    $.ajax({
        type: "POST",
        url: "example.com/show.php",
        data: 1
    })
    success: function data(response) {
        alert(data); // apple
    }
</script>

Here is the code on another file that I am accessing through Ajax (example.com/show.php).

<?php
    echo 'Hello '; 
?>

However I am getting Cross-Origin Request Blocked: warning in my console.

header("Access-Control-Allow-Methods: GET, POST, OPTIONS");
header("Access-Control-Allow-Credentials: true");
header('Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *');
header("Access-Control-Allow-Headers: Content-Type, *");
