  10. It’s essentially digital fraudsters trying to make money out of bad creatives and getting around ad vendors’ blockers (and also the ad company that we use blocks).

    Ads are served to the forum from an online ad agency... this one managed to serve a rogue ad (appearing to be a legitimate ad) but trying to direct traffic to a spammy link.

  12. Started again today. Happens when not logged in and clicked ‘recent posts’. Didn’t seem to happen when logged in but choosing recent posts.

    Tried 4 times, happened 4 times.
