Yikes!

TheSpottedZebra · 01/12/2015 19:50

Me too, literally just now.

I'll report this thread with a link to the site I was redirected to.
NB I didn't click on anything, it just magically changed.

TheSpottedZebra · 01/12/2015 19:52

Oh, and it was from this thread

I think this just happened to me too. Thank God we have a filter. I'm using chrome on phone.

MaidOfStars · 01/12/2015 21:35

It's a misdirect from the mobile server (so my reading tells me).

ScottishGlen · 01/12/2015 21:38

Happened to me too

luciole15 · 01/12/2015 21:42

Another one here. Not v impressed! Not in the slightest bothered by porn, just seems to suggest your sight is still a bit....leaky maybe? What's your explanation MN?

ftmsoon · 01/12/2015 21:44

Happened to me just now. Can't remember what thread I was on. There is a thread going in chat at the mo.

SilverShins · 01/12/2015 21:47

I wasn't on a thread, just clicked on MN bookmark and it redirected immediately.

Getit · 01/12/2015 21:51

Happened to me too

AnchorDownDeepBreath · 01/12/2015 21:54

And me. I was on active convos. Then once the porn closed, I got that "you've got a virus from browsing adult sites" rubbish too.

Grrr.

Amazemedontbeacunt · 01/12/2015 21:54

Me too

Getit · 01/12/2015 22:00

I'm annoyed about this especially as my information was on 'the list' with the Jeffery hack

Hi all, could you let us know if this is still happening in 20 mins? We've put some blocks in place which should stop this occurring.
Apologies for this, redirects are notoriously difficult to track down but we take this very seriously.

xalyssx · 01/12/2015 22:18

That happened on my phone the other day.

wasonthelist · 01/12/2015 22:45

Been redirected to dodgy sites twice today, one porn, one looks like a scam "you have won a prize" doesn't anyone at MN know anything about net security or is it no-one cares?

wasonthelist · 01/12/2015 22:46

It's still happening btw

EeyoresTail · 01/12/2015 22:49

Just happened to me. It seemed to redirect me to two different sites. Am using Mn on my mobile
