Pop up, anyone else?

[ThePyjamasOfACat]

Was just on the Facebook thread and all of a sudden got diverted away from the page and given the attached pop up. Had to bash the back key (like a demented sea lion) to get back here.

I get these occasionally from other sites (yes ok usually slightly dodgy celeb gossip ones when my curiosity about Taylor Swift and Kanye gets the better of me) but have never had one on MN before.

Is it just me?

[Kpo58]

I had one which did the your phone is infected scam, redirected to by an advert that was accidentally clicked on whilst trying to scroll down the page.

[AgentProvocateur]

Yes, I'm getting a tesco scam one occasionally on MN that I have to turn my phone off to get rid of it. Very annoying - mobile site on safari, iPhone.

[MooseAndSquirrel]

I've had this twice tonight - didn't click any adds but all of a sudden redirected to random sites. I closed the tab before they loaded, but its rather annoying.
Im using a windows phone

[Eyre89]

I was just going to post this just happened to me

[MyCatIsABiggerBastardThanYours]

Yes was just going to post about it. Has happened 3 times now on different threads.

Annoying as it takes me out of MN.

I'm on android on my mobile.

[ShowOfHands]

Yes. Android mobile and chrome.

Same Tesco scam.

[DameDiazepamTheDramaQueen]

Just happened to me too. Along with the porn pop ups. Ffs this really isn't on!

[ShowOfHands]

How do you screen shot?

[GissASquizz]

Yep. Ive had the 'your phone is infected!' shite and now the Tesco voucher shite.

[Sirona]

Me, I've had the same Tesco one twice on MN today. Had to close down to get out of it. Windows phone here

[Cocolepew]

Ive been getting that one too.
Theres another thread in site stuff, posters are getting and live porn, amongst other things.

[Cocolepew]

Usually your on/off button and the home button pressed at the same time Showy

[TheHobbitMum]

Happening far too often now, some scammy pop up grrr! Please sort it

[Sirona]

To add it didn't happen from clicking on any ads inadvertently. I was reading threads when suddenly it directs to what Pyjamas screenshot.

[YesYABU]

Keeps happening to me!

[mrssmith79]

Same here. V.irritating, has happened four times in the last hour - mobile site.

[mrssmith79]

Anyone know if mnhq have acknowledged this issue yet?

[Getit]

Pop up on a windows Lumia
When I tried to leave page it went red and said it was unsafe site.
Not happy.

[tiredvommachine]

Was on the 'Famous people with special needs' thread.

[anorakgirl]

Me too. Am on Android and mobile site. Has happened twice in last 10 mins on different threads

[hugoagogo]

Seems well dodgy but preferable to porn

[YetAnotherHelenMumsnet]

Hi there,
We're sorry about this, the Tech folks are on the case. Many apologies for the delay, in the meantime any details you can provide such as phone, computer, browser etc will help.

[HelloCanYouHearMe]
