I’ve been having a pop up (you’ve been selected for a free gift card from Amazon) just on this site for the past week or so. On my iPad and iPhone. I’ve deleted all content and re installed on both but it hasn’t stopped.
I am not clicking on the ad or doing anything. It hasn’t been on any other sites I’ve been on.
Any ideas on how to get rid of this.
That’s been happening to me, too. It’s random - doesn’t happen every time, but several times this week.
@deb922 you are not alone try posting to this thread:

Not on this site but on my tennis site I was getting a “you’ve won an IPad”. I communicated with the site moderator and took a screen shot and copied the URL for them and they told me what to do. I’ll look to see if I still have the info.
So my tennis site had me copy the URL and then they tracked it and blocked it from their site. They also had me delete cache/cookies. It hasn’t happened since so I assume they successfully blocked it.
Ok the next time it pops up I’ll screen shot it and see what can be done.
Glad it’s not just me lol
Looks like it’s being taken care of. I did erase my cookies.
It’s the site, nothing with your phone. They’re talking about it in the issues part of CC.
Ironically, I just got that popup when reading this thread about the popup! God does have a sense of humor…
Me too.
I guess I can’t visit with the i-pad.
Closing. Continue the discussion on the exiting thread:
