Espurrhoodie Posted August 11, 2019 Share Posted August 11, 2019 Pretty sure it's malvertising. Something similar happened a few months back with a scam site called Goodluckday.site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadow Mir Posted August 11, 2019 Share Posted August 11, 2019 I often have a similar problem on my phone too. It keeps telling me that my phone will be locked in a day if I don't get some app. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rezzy Posted August 11, 2019 Share Posted August 11, 2019 I have this problem all the time on my phone. Of the sites I visit regularly, it only ever happens on Serenes, and it doesn't happen on my laptop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anacybele Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 I've been meaning to bring this up to the mods, but keep forgetting. It happens all the time on my phone too, but never my laptop, just like Rezzy. It's the only site it happens on though, so I was never sure if it was my phone or the site. Now I'm pretty sure it's the site since I'm not the only one getting this problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Karnage Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 Yes, It's only happening on mobile though. It's an ad attack on curse media websites, so it's just not us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Armagon Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 I'm very pleased to know i'm not the only one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Faustino Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 Almost every time I use my iPhone to access this site it happens. Good thing I’m not the only one then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
