Possible malicious pop-ups/page hijacking?

[Warmsignal]

So I was just browsing through my collection page when all of a sudden I was forwarded to (what I think) is a bogus Microsoft webpage claiming my computer is infected with viruses and that I need to call a 1-800 number and contact them.

This is the page that I was taken to -

I'll give Jason a heads up! In the meantime, probably best that people don't click that link above.

I did notice most pages, my web browser was warning me that it detected malicious scripts and blocked them from running.

If one of you can send me the link in PM, as well as a link on VGC where this happens, I would like to see it for myself.

Any actual item page.

Such as.

Mine blocks the scripts from running so I don't know the links.

FYI, I messaged Jason about this yesterday night, so hopefully he'll get a chance to look into this soon if he hasn't already!

I'm really sorry about this. It looks like one of the ads that was displayed through the advertising network we use likely did that. In response, I have disabled ads for the time being. If you have any further issues, please let us know.
