Naked Pop ups

As I was posting today, a partially blurred pop-up of a naked woman in a shower appeared and it asked if I wanted to share naked pics with 'Shower'somebody (didn't quite catch the name. Busy getting it to go away.). Uh, no thank you LOL

Anyone else have 'interesting' pop-ups on MFP?

    I haven't had anything come up while using my computer, either at home or work, but sometimes I get these annoying pop ups on the mobile app saying I get a free spin to do something or other. I have to click ok to get it to go away and then it will just pop up again a few more times and then go away. It's probably happened to me 6-12 times since starting with MFP in mid-July

    In all the years I've used MFP I've never had any pop ups. I use it on my iPad, iPhone, and sometimes laptop.

    I haven't had pop ups and it's been almost a year. Are you sure it wasn't from a different tab/website?

    I have not seen any pop-ups.

    But, I do have the pop-up blocker turn on in my browser.

    And here I thought the 'F' in MFP stood for Fitness.

    No pop-ups here, but I have an ad blocker turned on. Now I get notices from various sites that ask me if I won't please turn off my ad blocker so I can see ads from their sponsors.

    Those stopped after I quit logging onto porn sites.

    Not positive but it looked like it was sent from another MFP user. I closed it out too fast to remember the details, but something about it made me think that.

    I have only seen those pop ups when I am using MFP, never when using any other app.

    I wouldn't mind a naked woman in a shower BUT with my luck I'd get that guy Wiener!

    Was just looking around and there is a thread about pop ups under the MFP Suggestions/Feedback section that others are seeing what you saw, Lin.

    Maybe it's a Connect post--someone who took their sharing to a whole 'nother level? :)

    No pop-ups for me; but I have pop-ups blocked. I also have Adblock installed so I don't see any ads.

    But I never check MFP on my phone either.

    I was reading thru the thread mentioned above about pop-ups. Made me laugh! They aren't happy with the MFP IT dept. They talked about being excited (sarcasm) to have new 'insightful' and 'awesome' buttons and said IT is busy taking a poll on what new button to add next, so no time to fix pop-ups. Maybe WW IT issues weren't as unique as I believed.

    I have the pop up only when using my desktop computer. It actually makes my computer freeze up from the scripts trying to run. I end up having to reboot to get control of the computer back. Oddly, I do not have any problems accessing MFP from my smartphone or tablet.
