All games and casino type ads that usually are tied to this crap are still blocked, so I just blocked that URL specifically. Let me know if it happens again.

As of this morning it seems to have stopped. Thank you for investigating!

When it was happening to me I had about 3-4 different URL’s that we’re tied to the pop up issue.

I just received the Amazon thing as well.

I’m not working with what Brian is doing to try and fix it, but I know he’s tried a lot so I’m not really sure what the solution is here.

It seems to be one of those cell phone things that's a real pain in the ass to deal with. The only thing I can do at this point is block the url directly. If it happens, please see where the link is so I can manually do it for each.

I did find that even if the issue is resolved on this website, the spam will have set a cookie that continues to wreak havoc. I would recommend force quitting safari as well as clearing website data.

I am really surprised that ios has such a simple hack vulnerability.

Its back. Are you using an ad server other than google?
urewardsofficenational.top
urewardsdebitorder.top
urewardsanduassist.top
rewardcenteru.com
giftthbirthdaywoman.top
Giftsbroughttojesus.top
Cardpokerstrategy.top

BTW, I am posting this from a desktop PC because I cannot access the site on mobile.

I tend to be obscure at times. I amuse myself but don't seem to earn interest from others. C'est la vie

I blocked all the URLs. Let me know if it still persists. I also tinkered with a few settings so hopefully, it stops it completely.

It’s still happening, no matter how often I clear cookies and force quit Safari. Perhaps you have the ad code in other files?

Can't be that.

I'll continue to investigate. I've changed nothing with any settings since you guys first reported it last year. Something had to have changed within AdSense that now allows this crap to come back. In the mean time, I blocked that URL too.

This is a known issue. Apparently when an ad is supposed to pop up, there's a url imbedded in that it waits 7 seconds and activates. Its been around a while and no one has yet figured out a workaround.

Which is odd because ever since I cleared cache and history on safari it hasn’t come back. Not that I’m complaining or anything

I went and grabbed firefox for ipad and iphone. It doesn’t have the issues that Safari has with this bot. That said, I prefer Safari...

...and I just checked Safari and it is still happening... even with cookies blocked!

Learn me something... with cookies blocked how are websites able to continue logging any kind of data??? This is a screen cap with cookies cleared and blocked in Safari:

What is the industry calling this kind of data now???
