tinker Posted June 9, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted June 9, 2018 Visiting villatalk on my latest Android phone using Chrome and I keep getting redirected to the page below , it's a phishing site thats mimicking Google . Not doing it on any other site , I think it's a rogue advertiser http://android.lastapplecar.com/android/en/5/index.html?voluumdata=deprecated&eda=deprecated&cep=jPui3iactUb-wmw0tX8r4bXlH4MpgfpVEr5t0F8eeQ7sCqk4G1EuNPNEX1m45DVuTyKoiv2jAWiuv-BKrF0kRnXRB37HhCqfJYFb33ZUTBbMQmzwLX9eJkmQWdZkzI31K5F17CDTmaX1zsuOWdOd-FNle4Ams5 1 Link to comment
0 Lichfield Dean Posted June 9, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted June 9, 2018 Same here - reported in the ads thread. There have been multiple redirects to various different URLs all warning about 'five virus' and it is making the site unusable. 1 Link to comment
0 Lichfield Dean Posted June 9, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted June 9, 2018 I have now re-subscribed to the ad-free option and the issue has gone away, so it is definitely an ad issue. Link to comment
0 Ingram85 Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 You shouldn’t have to donate to the site for it to be usable imo. Link to comment
0 omariqy Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 I'm getting the same issue. Link to comment
0 limpid Posted June 10, 2018 Administrator Share Posted June 10, 2018 Please supply the information requested at the top of the forum when reporting issues. I need to know browsers and OS. Confirmation of clearing cookies and cache. Is it happening on different network connections. If it's a redirect then where to. Last time we had this is was one service provider and nothing to do with the ads. The redirects were being injected at the network. I've noticed reports in a previous thread. Always start a new thread for new issues - just because you might think it's the same as something old, don't necro old problems Does anyone that can reproduce this have time to do some tests? 9 hours ago, Ingram85 said: You shouldn’t have to donate to the site for it to be usable imo. You're right. You should definitely ask for your money back Link to comment

I guess no-one then I've been free all day to test this and try and track down if it was one of our ads. We are busier than we were between games most of the season so this appears to only be affecting a small number of posters. I can't reproduce it at all and I can't fix it without assistance from someone who can. Link to comment
0 tinker Posted June 11, 2018 Author VT Supporter Share Posted June 11, 2018 Issue appears to have gone away, the redirect was to the link above. 1 Link to comment
0 limpid Posted June 11, 2018 Administrator Share Posted June 11, 2018 If anyone is still seeing this, please say now. I'll set the thread to lock in a few days so it doesn't get reused for future issues. Link to comment
