[Misc] @Bozza - Dodgy ad

[MENTION=6886]Bozza[/MENTION]

This ad is making the site unusable on mobile. It freezes the page and means closing the tab. It came up while I was typing up another version of this thread and had to start again. Seems pretty suspect!

Has happened about 5 or 6 times now

Apologies for the giant screenshot.

Yeah I’m getting it as well

Keep having to use back button to return to the thread I was reading

Don’t know why I didn’t try this! Because I couldn’t swipe back I assumed it wouldn’t work! Thanks.

Me too, I deleted NSC from favourites and then logged in again under google search and it cleared

 

[Bozza]

Can someone let me know the first URL you are taken to, which probably won't be the one you end up at as it probably goes through a series of re-directs. I can then get it blocked.

I've not experienced the same myself which makes it tricky to do!

Funny enough I just got this on the Argus time and again

It happened to me just now after visiting the Argus page before I’d even looked on NSC so it may not be on here? Or it’s everyehere??

Appears to just be this url https://eu.rewardcenteriphoneplus.pw/uk_google_iphoneX/index.html?trackid=201808250714061265

Didn’t see any redirects

It does seem to be the case that when these rogue ads get into the system they can hit you on almost any site unfortunately.

Now I've got the first URL it's taking people to, I should be able to get it blocked.

It does I am currently getting the same pop up on the Argus website

It will be to do with the ad network that they are using.

I’m getting it more and more.

You say it’s dodgy, but has anyone thought we might just all be lucky? Personally I’m like looking forward to my new iPhone arriving
