Pop-Up spam on my blog

  • Unknown's avatar

    As with other users, I am getting sylvans.cricket spam pop-ups.

    The message displays, says you’ve been selected to test a new phone and directs you to click the ‘ok’ button to proceed. There is no option to close the advert or proceed to the blog / post.
    I saw it this afternoon when I tried to log onto my own site mysinglesummer.wordpress.com to get a link for my latest post to tweet.
    I was logging on with my iphone.

    thanks in advance for any help or advice.

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    Have you seen other threads or talked to other users who have dealt with this issue? I searched our system and didn’t any report of this by any other user.

    Can you possibly create a screenshot so that I can see what you’re seeing? I do not see that pop up and it sounds like malware that is exclusive to your computer/browser.

    Let me know, thanks!

    Hi there,

    Thanks for coming back to me on this. Yes I did a google search for ‘Sylvans,cricket spam?’ and found a thread with other users having had the same.
    I’ve just accessed the blog and it has not come up again – but if it does I will screenshot and share with you. Many thanks,
