Default Popups while logged in, again.

I’m getting the dreaded Amazon popups while logged in again, iPhone OS 11.2.6.

Default Site hacked by Amazon gift card

When browsing your site on an iOS device with Safari, I keep getting the bogus Amazon gift card spam. Please fix.

This is not the same as getting pop up ads when not logged in.

Thank you.

My apologies for the redirect. We continue to work with our ad partners to block these rogue ads, and are also in the final stages of implementing a new ad scanner that will preemptively block the pop-ups before they reach your device.

wahaus, just to confirm, what device were you using when you got redirected?

iPad Air 2 for me and received this twice while logged in. Thanks for your effort to resolve this.

Default Pop up Ads/site unusable

I don’t know who is managing ads on club lexus but the ads are getting out of control to a point making the site unusable... I have been chased by this stupid amazon award ad that pops up every couple of mins, even when I am logged in. That’s happening on multiple devices and only on the club lexus site.

So, i dont know if the moderators can forward this to the admins of the site but I am sure that many people will stop contributing to this community if they are being chased by ads all the time, I know I am one of them...

You most likely have a virus.

Ive been having the same problem, but only on my cell phone, not on any other devices. It is annoying, it usually doesn't happen when I am on this site but rather a football forum I frequent. But I know exactly what your are talking about and it is a Royal pain in the ***.

Agreed happens on my iPhone every time, but never on my laptop. How the heck would I get a virus off of my phone? Love this site, but unusable via my phone. Sometimes technology can be frustrating!!!!!!!

I am unable to use this site from my iPhone and iPad because of Amazon Gift Card malware.

Still OK from iMac and PC.

This only happens on my phone but it's gotten so bad I could not even read 1 thread. It happens mostly when I'm on the wireless network but also when I'm using WiFi networks in the streets. But this is the ONLY site it happens on.
