Twice in two days here I got “ your iPhone is severely compromised,” and Says I had a virus. I closed it.
Anyone else getting something like this?
I get weird pop ups here once in awhile.
I just had a real notice from FB two days ago and changed my pw.
Wonder if they are related??

I get them all the time. Sometimes multiple times in a row. It's so annoying

Every now and then on my phone, but usually only if I have logged in.

Every now and then my Pea Page on my phone gets taken over by a scam page telling me I have won a Samsung phone or an iPhone. There is no way out of it other than to close the page and I am unable to see this site. It probably happens once a year or so and only on this site, never on any other one. It surprises me as I have a spam/virus checker on my phone. The only way I can get rid of it is to clear history and cookies.

I got it yesterday for the first time. I just ignored it. I am a rebel like that.  |

Yes, I got it on my phone last week for the first time ever. I closed the pop up immediately which is supposedly the wrong thing to do. I also keep getting logged out despite changing my password. My address bar also states that the site is ‘not secure’. Not sure what my next step is.

I almost never use my phone to access this site, but did the other day and got a virus warning. I have never gotten a warning using my iPad.

It seems to go in cycles where I get those a bunch then they go away for a while. It is difficult to get out of and very frustrating!
I found keeping a couple of internet windows open at once allows me to go to a different one without the pop up then close the one with the pop up. If I don't have another internet window open I sometimes have to access the internet by opening something in an email such as Nextdoor. I can click on the link in the email and get the internet back without the pop up being on the screen. Hope that makes sense.
Does anyone have a better way to get out of it?
