"Invisible" Ads/Pop ups

I’ve flagged this with the ad company, but doubt they’re in today. Is it mainly users in the US who are affected by the redirect issue?

I’m in the US on holiday and it’s been like this since I got here.
 
I'm getting the same with a play store app for "cheap calls to Nigeria with caller ID". Fuck you fool, I can ring all my friends in Nigeria for free with WhatsApp.

I'm getting the exact same thing for months now and it is really getting annoying. Only seems to happen when I used an iPhone or iPad. Constantly happens to me. I finally after trying to investigate it myself as a possible XSS attack, gave up and noticed the Technical Queries section of the forums. Any progress on this?

It happens for me not only on Bluemoon but I've noticed it on Redcafe also when I visit the scum site to cheer me up when I'm down (as they reluctantly continually praise our side!!!)

Me also..logged in from usa
 
I’m suddenly being swamped by pop ups on my iPhone when on BM. In the past there has been the odd 1, but now my phone is telling me 2-3 pop ups are being blocked, and now and then 1 will get through. At the moment it’s a Next gift card thing that I can’t close down without clicking ‘ok’ to say yes I want it. That opens up another page on top of BM which I then have to close down. It’s driving me nuts and only happens on here. I make sure I’m signed in and am regularly clearing my history/emptying cache, cookies etc. Anyone else getting this?
At least the Co-op ads seem to have stopped though...
 
Sorry just checked back and seen others are getting this too. BM is pretty much unviewable for me right now.
 
The last few days if I view the site on my android devices like phone I am getting pop up blocked messages.

Never happened before and isn't happening for other sites visited?

Am in sunny Manchester UK
And in half hour of being on here I must of had 40 pop ups blocked by my phone.
In the past that would be 2 at most
C.T.I.D

Same here in Manchester? and it is freezing the browser while the pop up blockimg message is loading, annoying to say the least
 
I am logged in from New Zealand and I have suddenly started getting messages about adds being blocked. Been here 2 weeks and only started a few days ago.
 
I can only apologise fellas, it’s not acceptable from the ad company. I’ve raised the issue urgently with this and hope they can get it resolved ASAP. Sorry for the inconvenience.
 
We’ve removed the ad vendor that we think was causing the problem. Please could you let me know if you’re still experiencing issues?

Is anyone else getting constant page redirects (and prompts) to fake “you are the lucky winner” Amazon or Google ads every third or fourth page view on here?

It’s getting to the point where the site is nearly unviewable as I am constantly having to hold down the back button to manually select the last page I was viewing (just single clicking the back button just refreshes the ad page; if you try it a few times and then check the back button history it is just an endless list of the fake ad page).

At first I thought I had some sort of adware on my iPad but after some testing I’ve confirmed it only happens on Bluemoon. I’ve cleared my cache (and site data, which was a pain, as I lost legitimate background site data doing so) and it still happens with the same ungodly frequency.

Screenshots for reference:

I get redirected to the Amazon add all the time. Last time was just a minute ago. As I recall, it started almost 3 weeks ago and it is really annoying.
