Kerny92 1,246 Posted March 29, 2018 Report Share Posted March 29, 2018 (edited) Since this morning whilst browsing on here I've been getting a pop-up apparently from YouTube saying congratulations you have been offered the chance to win a new phone. Obviously it's a scam but the layout looks very convincing, have any of your had the same? God knows what impact it will have on the safety of my phone.

But you should always assume that everything on your phone/comp etc is compromised. I suggest downloading a reputable scanner (AVG etc). If you are on android go to Google play and search for malware/virus scanner. Run a scan and you'll know ? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
