Constant spam pop ups

I'm getting a lot of sudden spam pop ups, and Google Safe Browsing warnings.

The pages they've been on are:

www.mumsnet.com/Talk

Screenshots of the warnings attached.

Any ideas?

Samsung s10+
Google Chrome
North west

Pretty much after every 2/3 threads I go on. Been happening all day and doing my head right in

BertieBotts · 07/05/2019 19:18

If it happens again I'll try and click on details

BertieBotts · 07/05/2019 19:16

If you look at the text on the Screenshots it seems to be a misleading ad which attempts to trick you into clicking on stuff - surely just blocking ads with the keywords Samsung and iPhone would work then.

MrsMozartMkII · 07/05/2019 19:15

I've had the same as GetOffTheRoof

MonaChopsis · 07/05/2019 19:14

And me, same red screen as OP, across multiple threads. Samsung S7, Android, North Wales.

BertieBotts · 07/05/2019 19:12

Getting this too. Sony ZX3 android, chrome browser. I'm in Germany. It seems to be linked to an ad on the page rather than the page itself?

I'm just clicking back to safety every time rather than letting it redirect me.

Only thing I haven't given you is location (that's a new one!) - Cornwall, near the Devon border (hissssss 😉).

I've not clicked on anything for a redirect, it's being caught by Google Safe Browsing each time.
