pop-up only on my IPHONE and on BR site.
« on: March 31, 2017, 07:35:45 PM »
Yesterday I had a "Pop up" stating that my iPhone was randomly chosen, and that I had won $1000 GC to walmart or amazon. It only shows up when I log onto to this site. I did everything I could to get rid of it, but it keeps showing up. The only thing I haven't tried is resetting (restoring) my phone and/or calling apple support.

Anyone experienced this before?

Whlie we do have banner ads on our site, we aren't doing any popup ads. I'm working with our ad companies and checking our code to try to track this issue down.

Is anyone currently experiencing this issue? I've tried on a few different iOS devices logged out and logged in and am not seeing the pop-ups. If you are experiencing it is it as soon as you get to ballreviews? Are you looking at the home page or a specific post? Just trying to track this down so we can remove it.

It would popup when I clicked on a link under "Latest Forum Posts" on the home page.

I don't know if it was just that particular link or if it would have happen on all of them It didn't seem to do it all the time.

The pop wouldn't allow me to navigate through the website. It took me to another website. And when I delete safari and do few things to get rid of it, and I typed in the BR address, the thing would reappear every single time.

Downloading the Norton app fixed the issue. It happened on both my iphone and all 4 ipads.

 When it popped up on mine, the address bar showed the url as huntvista.xyz .

 I haven't had it pop up at all today.
