Default Phishing here
Anyone else getting a pop-up when on this forum telling them the browser is corrupted, the tablet is infected due to virus from **** site visit. I know it can't be because I never visit **** sites on my tablet. Screen isn't big enough. 😁

No pop-ups here - using Safari on MacAir. What browser and OS are you using?

Chrome and Android (Samsung tablet). I get this message occasionally, and only when visiting this forum.

I’ve had a pop up that takes me to another website for an Amazon gift card ... only happens when I’m on this site.

Pop ups on my android make visiting this site useless. They need to fix this.

Peace

I’m getting the amazon gift card pop up as well on my iPhone. I was just looking for a solution when I saw this thread. Hopefully there is a fix because I enjoy reading this forum.

It's a persistent and hugely annoying issue on mobile (iOS & Android) platforms - https://rennlist.com/forums/showthre...7&goto=newpost

I noticed this the one time I accidentally opened the forum in Chrome. I normally use Firefox with Ghostery and uBlock Origin plugins. No issues.

Never saw this on either of four different computers I'm using. Not once. All four are PC's with Firefox browser, Windows 7 on one, Windows 10 on the other three. All four have Malwarebytes, Avast Pro antivirus and CC Cleaner to keep things tidy.

I get the annoying Amazon pop-up, but only on my iPad never on my laptop or desktop Macs.
