Yes, it's super annoying. I remember the same thing happening a few months ago too

Yup, except I’m getting redirected to some sort of “you’ve won” spam sites. Im on iPhone if it makes a difference.

Sounds like the main page got hacked again. I always go directly to the forums which seems to work.

I got the prize offer from the forums homepage, as well as from individual threads…. It’s not just the main page! If I turn on NordVPN’s Adblocking, that solves it! I am on iPadOS, both Safari and Chrome. I got offered an older Samsung, or a newer iPhone… and no gift cards, compared to the image above!

If you experience a redirect please email me the page URL you last visited and send me the URL of the redirect. I have not been able to duplicate and the initial search tonight has not turned up any hacked changes to the script.

Send any info to avcanada@gmail.com

Seems to be happening on mobile devices. It's embedded in your ads. Login screen was ok then it pops up on the main forum page when the ad loads.

I removed one of my ad providers. Curious if this also removes the redirects. If so please let me know.
