Can't scroll past ads

[ThisMustBeMyDream]

Have you changed the ads? On my phone, and every time I scroll through a thread, as soon as I try to scroll past the ad, it clicks on it. This has only been over the last few days.
What is going on? It is infuriating.
Anyone else?

Hi @ThisMustBeMyDream if you are still experiencing problems, please let us know the device and version you are using. Which section were you on? Also, are you able to provide a screenshot too please? We'll do our best to get to the bottom of this for you.

Happened to me right on this thread - it's the Samsung ad which opens every time. I am not clicking on it, just scrolling and it auto opens when I go past.

Just tested it by reloading this thread, had two different ads come up and scrolled past with no problem, then got the Samsung one again and it clicked and opened.

Me too.
Scrolling past is fine, as long as I don't touch the ad at all.
If I touch and hold the screen to scroll with my finger on the ad (not clicking it, just touching the screen), it's automatically redirecting me to their ad site.

It's the samsung ads for me too. On a samsumg galaxy 7. All sections.

This is still happening with the Samsung ad. I'm on galaxy s8.
