Popup on THIS SITE

Scammer number: 877 939 1354

Popup link: Apple System Security
Any other scammer information: The link was on THIS SITE…TSU.
It’s a button at the top that says ‘continue’. Or is it MY browser?

They said Microsoft. But I’m guessing it’s one number for both platforms.

TSU uses ads to help try and pay for hosting costs the button you are talking about on the top middle of the page is one of the AD placement spots and I am guessing you clicked the ad and then that redirected you to the popup scammer. Everything is managed by google ads so I will have to manually report that specific AD and see if google bans their acc if they have not already.

This is the ad that’s on a few sites. The name of advertiser… based in India. I opened it using duck duck go and it doesn’t show….so I’m assuming that browser is much safer. Same ad showed up in 123Greetings …. so maybe it’s my Safari browser?? (I’m using an iPad)

ads can be targeted based by the users browser so a scammer could set the ads for safari or chrome and then if a browser doesnt match that it will go to another ad instead - User-Agent targeting  |  Real-time Bidding  |  Google for Developers

Edit:
Also I believe Duckduckgo has built in ad blocking so that may be why you see no ad at all.
