Scam pop up / redirect to phishing site?

The above title is one that my forum has given to this issue.

The Users concerned said they are Virgin, Orange and Vodafone Users and the scammers seem to get the ISP correct.

This was a few hours ago so the system may've already got the offending ads. I don't  have any more info.

Hi tonmod

Hopefully they have been removed already. I have alerted the team that there are some problem ads, just in case. If they are still seeing the redirect, would you be able o find out what browser/device they were using at the time.

One User has posted this,

"you've won a BT competition ... " yesterday. Desktop PC and Chrome.

Hopefully this helps.

Thanks tonmod As there were some removed yesterday, hopefully that ad has now been handled. Let us know if the problem continues, and apologies once again for the inconvenience.
