    Tablet pop-ups

    Posted by Oldepilot45 on November 27, 2023 at 3:20 pm

    I am getting full screen pop-ups of unwanted games and even offer to download tik-tok app on my tablet. This usually occurs when I am using the Foxnews app. Are these coming from Fox or am I being hacked? I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab S9+ using Verizon.

    Hello Oldepilot45,

    I just installed the app to try it out. Within the first 30 seconds, I had a full-screen takeover ad, one where you have to wait until the X in the corner shows up to close the app.

    You are not being hacked that is Fox News Ads running on the app.
