I'm getting redirected to a website saying that my phone has a virus, I'm using Chrome on Android.

BBQsAreSooooOverrated · 17/08/2016 14:28

Redirected to 'virus' warning page here too. Also using Chrome on android phone.

AMomentaryLapseOfReason · 17/08/2016 14:29

Same here, it appears I have won an iPhone. Can't get away from it without closing Safari (on iPad).

fatbottomgirl67 · 17/08/2016 14:32

Me too. I'm on iPhone and I get multiple re routes every time I read a thread. Getting bit boring now any solutions?

WellErrr · 17/08/2016 14:35

Me too - gaming site.

GrimmauldPlace · 17/08/2016 14:39

Same here. Mobile site, Android Chrome. Was in the middle of reading a thread so hadn't even clicked on anything

I am too just now! So irritating as it becomes unusable.

Perspective21 · 17/08/2016 14:41

Also just randomly in the middle of reading a thread, not even a link!

boldlygoingsomewhere · 17/08/2016 15:22

I've also been getting a lot of redirects today- Marvel and App Store mainly. On iPhone 6, safari and mobile site.

GraciesMansion · 17/08/2016 15:24

Me too. Lots of very quick redirects but I haven't stayed on any of them long enough to see what they are. 4s, Safari and mobile site.

OdinsLoveChild · 17/08/2016 15:25

I'm getting redirections but it's telling me to join or log into mumsnet. That pop up to log in then redirects to other sites. Angry

RiverTam · 17/08/2016 15:28

Happened twice to me, once on iPhone, once on iPad.

AgentProvocateur · 17/08/2016 15:45

Me too. again!

2boysnamedR · 17/08/2016 16:07

Me too. It was mid page on a thread. Didn't click on anything it just self redirected. Will screen shot if it happens again

KatherineMumsnet · 17/08/2016 16:11

So sorry, all - thanks very much for flagging and for sending over screenshots. We're chatting to our ads team about this now.

Tried on new iPad and can't get past a log in pop up. If you get rid, it pops back up immediately meaning you can't read anything!

QueenLaBeefah · 17/08/2016 16:26

I was automatically redirected to a porn site. iPhone 5 safari.

PigPigTrotters · 17/08/2016 16:40

It only happens to me in MNfightclub AIBU.
I'm happy to see it as teaching me a lesson for going in there in the first place!

ChessieFL · 17/08/2016 19:38

Another one this is happening to - on several different threads, randomly redirected to a Marvel Cyclops site. iPhone 6 on safari, mobile version of desktop site.

Sundaysmumisfullofwine · 17/08/2016 21:27

Also happened to me this morning, just random browsing a thread, on iPhone 6 using safari.

LiviaDrusillaAugusta · 17/08/2016 21:31

iPhone 6 Plus using Safari - keeps redirecting when I'm not actually clicking on anything. Last time this went on for weeks!
