Mobile. Just got another "Amazon user, you've won a free gift" That again was in Chrome. I use Amazons app, never use mobile browser for shopping. I use a bunch of tools in open source browser. I just checked my hit list for redirects and I have 13 since I've replied to you. I don't see em but thats what the browser tool is reporting.

I'm on mobile, too. I get both the fake Amazon one as well as the "virus blocker". You can't back out of either one; you have to close the tab and start over
There's one other that pops up then redirects you to download a flv player in the app store when you back out of it.
It takes a few seconds, too. Sometimes I'll close chrome and go to another app, then chrome will pop up again because the redirect just loaded. Or I'll get several lines into typing a reply sometimes.

Makes no difference. A mobile device browser isn't robusto no matter if users are using the full site or the mobile view..... code is code. Probably should do a good site sweep in BBedit, thats a site admin job. Sorry, this site is created with VBulletin, same thing, hit up a site admin and let them know Pat.

I use the desktop on Android with chrome and haven't had a issue in weeks, so I was curious to see if its a issue in the mobile version more so than the desktop.

Switched back to the mobile version of the site and pop ups straight away. Back to the full site no issues.
Seems to be a issue with the mobile view version. I let the powers that be know.
If you scroll to the bottom and switch to the full version it should alleviate the problem until they can sort it out.
