Horrible Ads

Hi, I’m getting kind of, almost porn type ads on Safari while using Mumsnet - for something called Whispers? Please could you take a look? Pretty horrible.

We're sorry you're seeing dodgy ads, @Tamworthian - not what we want to hear at all!

If you see one of these adverts again, would you be able to click on it (you can do this after turning off wifi and data so you don't actually land on the page). If you can then copy the URL to the advert and send it over to us, we should be able to block it directly and prevent it from coming onto the site.

If you'd rather not do that, then a basic screenshot of the ad would be helpful.

It would also help to know which device and which version of the site you're using (mobile / app / desktop).

Thanks in advance.

Thank you, here’s the screenshot for now, unfortunately (or fortunately!) I didn’t catch the erm, moving hand on crotch action, that was the problem!

Hi again @Tamworthian. Thanks so much for the url. We'll pass that on.
