I keep getting this every five minutes while browsing on my phone. One of y'all has a shitty avatar or signature.

I keep getting the same one almost every time I check Pulse., and I don't know why. And I don't even have Verizon. Oh... well shit, this is embarrassing for me.

ProBoards. (but for real, it's almost always due to their ads; user avatars/signatures usually can only trigger malware warnings, not actually redirect things, since they don't load scripts like ads do)

God, I hate these! That's one big reason why I can't browse the web on my phone anymore.

I've seen things like this a couple of times. I just installed an adblocker to "get rid" of it.

Phone providers doesn't really have anything to do with it. I just found it funny that it was congratulating me as a Verizon customer when I've never had Verizon in my life. In all actuality, it's a scam message with a code to replace Verizon with whatever company your phone has, it just failed on my end.

Well, when I get mine, it doesn't have anything to do with the phone provider, it says Amazon user. And I rarely ever browse Amazon on my phone.

This is why I don't browse message boards on a phone. Tablets are small enough to bring around the house.

I get this message every now and again. There's times where I get redirected to this multiple times a day and there's times where I can go weeks without seeing this. Been having this happen to me all year. I don't even have Verizon. I use Sprint.

Two weeks ago I got a pop-up (not a redirect to another page such as the giant picture Au$tin posted of Amazon) on Pulse. I think it was for some Japanese company. Anyone else have a similar experience?
