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/am_i_being_unreasonable/3579365-Teen-Stepdaughter?msgid=86878689#86878689

www.mumsnet.com/Talk

www.mumsnet.com/Talk/Site_stuff

Screenshots of the warnings attached.

Any ideas?

Hi there all,

Sorry to hear this is happening, we're looking into it now. It'd be really helpful if we could have the following information to pass on to our security team.

1.Device and Platform: iPhone/Android etc and Safari/Chrome/FireFox etc

  1. The URL of the page the redirect launched from
  2. The URL or Screenshot of the page you were redirected to
  3. Your approximate location.

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.
