I still occasionally receive the fake Amazon gift card message but only while viewing the mobile site on my iPhone. Never have a problem when viewing the full site on a normal computer.

It’s only a mobile app issue.

It happens to me on my iPhone all the time. It’s to a point where I thought it was normal.

I have had it happen many times to me on the mobile app. I have found that hitting the back button will then allow you to close the pop up and continue reading.

I’m willing to pay FTE. How do I do that?This does happen to me 5-6 times a day( even with Adblock). But I have found that if I delete thehighlighted address at top and then at the bottom left, hit <, it goes back to the previous FTE page without having to start all over if that makes sense.

I used to have the issue you are referring to on mobile. An ad appears and it takes you away from the site making it impossible to navigate back.

Ever since I installed 1Blocker app from the appstore, I haven't had it happen again. I highly recommend 1Blocker.

Here is a link: https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/payments.php

I don't know what affect being a paid-up member will have on your mobile browser experience. I don't access the side from anything except a desktop browser.

Try this on iPhone:
Next time you get forwarded and get the popup, click the back arrow before clicking "ok" and it should take you back to the forum. It's not a perfect fix but its better than locking up Safari the way it does.

It's never happened to me on my Android. I pretty much only view this site on mobile. Pixel XL, chrome browser, but I use uBlock Origin on all my browsers.

It's definitely only on the mobile version of the website. I had it a bunch a year ago but then it went away. It just started up hot and heavy again this month. Way more than before. If anyone hasn't seen it:
