Just wanted to flag, I was navigating the forums on my Galaxy S5 (General Board and Raptors Board ) and, without any interaction, was forced do another page. Was something like Fashion58.com or something along those lines.
Probably some sketchy/crappy ad code.

I was getting a pop up too over the weekend about how I should scan my phone for viruses with some sketchy website and some app download.

Good to know that it wasn't just my phone. For a while thought my phone might really have a virus or something but RealGM is the only site I was getting that from. Figured it was the site and not my phone.

Are you both in Canada? That would help us identify the potential network this came from.

I've been getting this as well for the past few days. I even did a factory reset on my phone, and it is still happening. And RealGM doesn't seem to be the only place I'm getting it from. I also get it from one Lithuanian basketball related news site. I'm from Lithuania.

I'm in America and it has been happening to me, some weeks more than others but it's been happening consistently for a month.

It's progressively gotten worse for me. Every time I open up a page, there is something.
