This has been happening to me for about a week or so.

Also on an android phone on the mobile site

incogKNEEto · 17/09/2016 07:25

Me too. Android phone and mobile site.

elgol · 17/09/2016 07:26

This has been going on for ages (over a month) and it's really getting annoying. I can't believe mn still haven't sorted it.

I don't get redirected to porn anymore, so that is an improvement. Now it's an s3.amazon site telling me I'm a plus net customer followed by offers of free apple products.

PLEASE SORT IT MN HQ

KnockMeDown · 17/09/2016 07:28

Happened to me as soon as I clicked on this thread for the first time. I had Vodafone, who are my broadband provider.

There is a thread on site stuff about this - MNHQ have been trying to sort it, and probably thought they had until this morning!

cexuwaleozbu · 17/09/2016 07:34

Happened to me this morning too. I wonder if the spammers timed it to start once the weekend started so that there wouldn't be tech support around.

PumpkinPie9 · 17/09/2016 07:35

Yes i had it just now when I was on a mumsnet thread. (Android)

Gmbk · 17/09/2016 07:37

Me too, android mobile site using Chrome.

elgol · 17/09/2016 07:44

They haven't sorted it. I've been getting it intermittently for over a month. I have antiviral stuff on my phone. The site I get redirected to has changed, but the result is the same.

Mn is supposed to be a professionally run site. It really doesn't feel like it at the moment.

PumpkinPie9 · 17/09/2016 07:46

I was on the mobile site on chrome too (Android)

lostindubai · 17/09/2016 07:54

Sorry I looked for another thread about it too Blush my brain is mush that time in the morning.

Also android BTW.

Me too.
Android on the mobile site.
I was midway through reading a thread when it randomly went to this site

MyCatIsABiggerBastardThanYours · 17/09/2016 09:19

And me. Bloody annoying. Been happening for about a week I think

purplemunkey · 17/09/2016 09:48

Me too, just happened again. I took screenshots but they are the same as above so won't bother adding them.

This has happened several times over the last few weeks. I'm also on android.

Butterchunks · 17/09/2016 12:46

Still happening to me too. Android, mobile site, chrome browser

Silverstreaks · 17/09/2016 19:39

Android, mobile site, chrome too.

BlueEyeshadow · 17/09/2016 21:27

Me too. Android and mobile site, clicking on threads I'm on. Seriously alarming.

Narnian · 17/09/2016 21:29

Me too. On Android just now.

drinkyourmilk · 17/09/2016 21:30

Happening to me too. Very irritating

IonaMumsnet · 17/09/2016 22:28

Hi folks. So sorry to hear about this. We'll ask Tech to take a look asap. Thanks for all the information and screen shots - that's really helpful. We'll update you as soon as we can.

ReedBunting · 18/09/2016 10:50

Me to - over the last couple of weeks. the same bt one as in the op's post. Most recently last evening and again 5 mins ago today. Really really annoying. Android chrome mobile site.
