malicious pop-up ad from lacare.org
How can this spoofer be stopped? They obviously are able to bypass much of Microsoft security under the guise of an lacare.org pop-up advertisement except when you click on the add, the website comes...

wcb_123 I think it may have just been a really badly designed drop-down menu, I didn't notice anything funny. I headed over there for the fun of it because I think there's like a security AI following me around, but I'm probably just crazy.
Oh, wait a minute. Looks like my browser / AI did a nice job blocking out some things (but not the terribly designed drop-down menu):
@Andrzej1, you don't sound like a nice person. Or maybe I read the tone wrong.

- wcb_123Dec 23, 2022Brass ContributorO.K. ... "drop down menu" ... what or which drop down menu are you referring to? And the block you're referring to ... does that come from the bad link I posted, or did you just go directly to the normal LA Care website? (Drop downs I'm familiar with are the single line textarea drop downs with a little black arrow to the right pointing downwards -- not that type?)
- wcb_123Dec 23, 2022Brass ContributorHello ... excuse the stupid response. I didn't see the picture you posted on my little tablet. May just have gotten a multi pop-up from a bad website that follows ME around, but I still think LA Care and their Tech Dept itself needs to be talked to at length as charities et al, as I've been told, are easy prey for hackers et al.
- wcb_123Dec 23, 2022Brass Contributorhello ... he's o.k.
it's not a drop-down menu; it's a pop-up advertisement
apparently nobody else is getting this
sent it in anyway
thanks- tdc_928Dec 23, 2022Copper ContributorI have been getting the same popup. Total AdBlock does block it. But I shouldn't have to buy a program to stop getting a popup that I have no control over.
- wcb_123Dec 23, 2022Brass ContributorTotal AdBlock? But I see you now get a recurring ad from them instead. Possibly THEY are the source of this annoying pop-up?
