I've found a temporary fix The offending advertisment will take ages to load and will appear as blank box. You'll need to click the X to have Google not show that advertising again

But I've never seen the pattern where it loads and we're then redirected.

Other ads loads pretty fast for me. Anyways since blocking that one ad, haven't have any occurrence since. Ignore that, just had another redirect, different ad this time.

When the Google Adsense at the bottom of forum page turned blank (white background) for a few seconds, then the Maxis scam ads will pop up. I tried several times, and I think the culprit is Google Adsense. The Maxis scam ads pop up after showing the following ad: This post has been edited by FlierMate1: Jul 5 2022, 04:18 PM
