I was on a thread scrolling through the responses and I was suddenly redirected to this advert. This is the first time I see such ads on here.

sorry hijack, but similar? Today suddenly got multiple time redirect popup

i got the similar pop up as well on mobile and i though it was other website that caused it but no..it was from lowyat..

Were you both redirected automatically?

which thread was this? this usually happens when a forum user's signature contains some links (images or scripts) - which expire and are taken over by malicious scripts that push out ads.

I got it too
Edit even this help desk thread I got it too

Tried the link shared by munak, no issue with this pop up redir. But I haven't had this problem ever since I reported it in April.

But from my original post and screenshot, you'll see it's that Bukit aman thread before I was redirected to the scammy site.

The pop up redirect will happen about 3-4 mins idling in the thread

it even happens on the kopitiam main page though

mine happens after idling as well, it happen when i reopen my chrome app on my phone with the forum still open

I got this scam ad too. Please do something.

Looks like munak991 is correct. The popup happen after idle awhile at all thread anywhere everywhere, including this pagr im writting the reply now (which has no signature linking to external site) so its not like what u mentioned.

It's not idling I think. I was just scrolling this thread particular thread just now and it popped up.

Like the other guy I quoted also, happened today.

I thought my phone infected. Guess everyone having same issue...

It's not just thread even the main page of /k/ or help desk will have the redirect ads after u idle for some time

The issue is how da fuck they even know which telco I am using and pop-up the correct telco ad?

IP.

Occur when i am using chrome on android only. Iphone no issue

Don't have this issue on Firefox on Android.

Edit - but then again I have a Diversion installed on my router that could be blocking it.

Happened in kopitiam and while replying to this thread.

I suspect it's the add below the thread. It auto forward
