Pop up, anyone else?

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?

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.

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.

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.

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.
