I just saw this and felt I should share it. I’m sure most people here wouldn’t fall for it but it can’t hurt to make sure 👍
Edit: I just wanted to add, I have no idea what this tried to copy. I’m using Firefox on Linux which is perhaps why it didn’t make it to my clipboard 🤷

I’ve also noticed, it doesn’t always come up but let me know if it does for you.
I’m confused. Is this a malicious website that you came across? Is this website normally legit? Was this an ad popup? Do you use ublock origin? It would be great if you gave a little more information here. Otherwise we don’t really know what you were doing or what we should avoid. If this is a real legit website then my guess is this was an ad popup.
Edit: virustotal for that website is clean. So either this was a popup (you should use ublock origin) or your PC is infected with malware and you may want to take action (idk for sure, just a guess.) Another possibility is that website was compromised.
I’ve never visited the site before so I just assumed it was just malicious, but as @zdanger said, it might be a hijacked legit site.
I do use uBlock. It also didn’t ‘feel’ like an ad. I now expect the site was compromised as you suggested.
Yea. If others can confirm it then seems like the site was hacked
It didn’t show up when I first visited it, but it did after a hard refresh (Ctrl+Shift+R)
I didn’t copy anything to the clipboard, though.

Thanks for that. I also didn’t know about that shortcut until now. It will be very helpful 👍😁
Happy to read it, good luck!
