Ads redirecting on mobile
On iPhone using Safari, and these ads are redirecting me to various sites including cam girls. It only happens here, gamefaqs.com, and politico.com for me—no other sites—so whatever ad network you guys are using has a shady ad that needs to be reported.

re: Ads redirecting me to cam girl site MERGED
Thanks Breakfast! I'll get this reported. Were you on mobile skin or full? And was it an automatic redirect, without clicking on anything?
|
re: Ads redirecting me to cam girl site MERGED
Great, thanks. Mobile and automatic redirect.
|
re: Ads redirecting me to cam girl site MERGED
I don't get directed to a cam girl site but I sure do get hit with scamming supposed virus hits coming from some ads that load while in here and only when on this site. It is becoming very hard to use the mobile site as I have to completely kill the browser each time it happens....

b2net, Thanks for the info. I'll add this to the tech ticket. Always helps to have more evidence!

re: Ads redirecting me to cam girl site MERGED
I hardly use the mobile skin (also iOS) due to frequent redirecting.

I will try to get something if possible... Btw, I am using chrome browser on an Android phone... |
re: Ads redirecting me to cam girl site MERGED
Would anyone happen to notice which ads that are on the page when this occurs?
|
re: Ads redirecting me to cam girl site MERGED
Can someone post pics of said "cam girls"?
P.S. I'm a mod and want to get right to the bottom of this. |
re: Ads redirecting me to cam girl site MERGED

Just had 3 more in a row on TV Talk. This is getting GD out of hand.
Edit: make it 4 |

Why does this pop up on iPhone on this site?

Every time I pop into a thread this pops up like an annoying ad that can't get rid of. I can understand on PC, but never had such a malware on phone... |
Re: Ads redirecting me to cam girl site MERGED
Oldboy, I merged your post with this thread. Seems to be on the same topic. I get the crappy redirects too on both Android and iPhone.
|
Re: Ads redirecting me to cam girl site MERGED
Also getting the redirects Oldboy posted. Seemed more common on the random image thread in Otter.
|
Re: Ads redirecting me to cam girl site MERGED
I keep getting the same ad as OldBoy. It's making the mobile site unusable

Website Redirect Issues
Hello,
I've been experiencing issues lately when using the website on my iPhone where I'll constantly get redirected to a page telling me that I've won some sort of prize. It's been happening a lot lately over the past week or so and is really irritating as I pretty much have to constantly close the tab and open a new one but even then a lot of times it'll still happen. I have pop ups blocked on Safari on my phone but it's still a pretty consistent issue. This is the only website I regularly frequent where this happens. Just wondering if anyone else is experiencing the same thing? Edit: it just happened again after I posted this thread. Irritating as hell. |
Re: Ads redirecting me to cam girl site MERGED
This ad redirect stuff is getting hella annoying...
|
Re: Ads redirecting me to cam girl site MERGED
Add me to the list. Happening on my iPhone and iPad. I have not tried switching to the desktop site.
|
Re: Ads redirecting me to cam girl site MERGED
I got the camgirl crap on my iPhone today. :doh:'
PM'd IB about it. |
Re: Ads redirecting me to cam girl site MERGED
Our tech guys are on this. They've managed to replicate it (I couldn't) and are currently working on resolving it.
|
Re: Ads redirecting me to cam girl site MERGED
Hasn't been happening to me today so far. :thumbsup:
|
Re: Ads redirecting me to cam girl site MERGED
We think it was an issue with an ad partner, and we are still making sure.
|
Re: Ads redirecting me to cam girl site MERGED
it popped up several times me for on my iPhone and my iPad. annoying
|
Re: Ads redirecting me to cam girl site MERGED
Just happened two more times in the random picture thread

That's what I've been getting pushed to today and the last couple days on my iPhone with Safari |
Re: Ads redirecting me to cam girl site MERGED

Re: Ads redirecting me to cam girl site MERGED
I'm using browsers and this ad redirect thing is happening often as well. As soon as I click a thread to enter a topic, it would immediately redirect to an ad. I would have to use the back arrow to go back 2 pages else the ad keeps loading itself with only backspace.
I am using firefox, and most of the ad redirects seem to occur with threads in TV talk (for me at least). |
Re: Ads redirecting me to cam girl site MERGED
Still happening to me too. 3 times today on Chrome for iOS.
|
Re: Ads redirecting me to cam girl site MERGED
Once yesterday. Tried to redirect me to a gamers ad or something while clicking on a thread in the political forum. I'm using firefox.
|
Re: Ads redirecting me to cam girl site MERGED
I had the following URL redirect a few times today: http://webpromotionsusa.com/?Flow=6b...erTM&DVID=3322
|
Re: Ads redirecting me to cam girl site MERGED
^ Same. Just did it a few minutes ago.
|
Re: Ads redirecting me to cam girl site MERGED
Just got one in Conan thread. Fucking fix this IB!
|
Re: Ads redirecting me to cam girl site MERGED
And this has just turned absolutely offensive now...
http://imgur.com/a/Ejgdd These bastards redirect you 12+ times such that you can't even get away with a backspace anymore. To add insult to injury, it happened again when I clicked on this very page! |
Re: Ads redirecting me to cam girl site MERGED
Ugh, I'm getting that WebPromotionsUSA thing too. Strangely, the other redirects were always immediate; for this one, I was leisurely reading through a thread and had scrolled down a good bit of the way through the page before it triggered. It's happened to me three times in the past 15 minutes.
