Spam redirects??

what's in the past couple of days I started noticing that while browsing the forms I'm suddenly taken to random bullshit spam crap pages.

What? This is on mobile, I've not tried it on my desktop since it started

Another member had the same problem 5 days ago.

Search this forum for “forum hacked”.

There are settings on your mobile you need to change. It’s explained in the thread. I’m not an expert, so I won’t try to explain it myself.

Just did a search and found something from 2018 but that didn't seem to have any with the browser, just talking about the site being out of date. Is that what you were referring to? Or is there a newer post?

The post I’m referring to was dated 3/9/21.

When I searched for “forum hacked”, it was the first match. Did you use the google search function that is on this forum?

I copied the post that describes how to fix the problem.

Interesting, it seems like it's stopped on its' own so I'll keep this saved in case it comes back up

I also hate spam on my email. I have noticed that eighteen percent of emails I get are spam, and only twenty are important. I spent a lot of time understanding which email is spam and which not until I started to use tools to increase the deliverability of using the email. It is an email filter. I found it on folderly.com. It automatically filters every email you get, creating two folders, one with spam emails and one with important emails. It is beneficial, especially if you want to save some time.
