I use Safari on my iPhone 7 and the latest iOS. I also use Adblock and Adblock Plus. If those are turned on, all is good, but turned off and I get the Az popup. The ads will most likely never fully go away, so seems like the best solution is some sort of ad blocker. Just my $.02.

I get the amazon pop up for my iPad when I enter thru Google. When I use Duck Duck Go, a none tracking search engine, the pop up never appears. Good bye Google

Since I added the blocker, my iPad and phone are working fine on the forum.
However, now when I go into another forum I frequent often, I get a pop up from a commercial site that asks “can we talk to you?” asking me to remove the blocker so they can hit me with ads!
It never ends.

I understand the concern here. Ads are one thing and rogue ads like these that pop-up and/or take the viewer away from the site is not a good experience. Internet Brands has not allowed such behavior but ads don't always behave and it's a frequent battle weeding them out.

Thanks to mods or whoever seems to have been fixed on my IPad Pro. I’ve been reading the site for about 45 minutes and no ad popup's. This is the first time since around Christmas that I could read the site without the Amazon popup, which made me leave immediately.

I have two ad blockers on and I get no ads but curious to see if its fixed without them.

I still get the Amazon Pop-Up Ads on my Iphone and IPAD; therefore, I no longer access this website anymore from those devices. I am also 100% sure it only happens when I visit this forum. There must be some sort of bad code but since it is a free website, nothing for me to complain about.

Wow I guess I’m just lucky or something, I still am not getting them. I am using safari with no adblockers other the standard one in safari. Before yesterday once I opened a thread boom there it was and I would just close CorvetteForum tab. I’ve been on and off all day and still nothing.
Sorry I’m no computer guru so I have no idea why mine stopped and for you guys it still does, all I do know is whoever does this Bull&!!! Needs to be beat with a stick. I know it takes ads to run sites but that is just so far over the top. OK rant over.

This is not a unique Corvetteforum only issue. Has anyone tried this: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/8220208
One person at the link above stated, "Fixed mine by going to the safari Settings—safari—advanced—website data—search and delete the site there or clear them all out."

Those pesky amazon ads pop up on my iPad, but not on the CF, but on FB and other sites. Neverever happens on my iMac on any site. I do not do internet on my iPhone, too small and it frustrates me. I have used safari exclusively.n

This just started happening to me last week and only on CF to the point it has rendered this site almost useless for me. In fact my first try at posting this was blocked by a google pop up ad. I phone 7 with iOS 11.2.2

The team is investigating it today.
However, I'm not sure the Apple and Android issue are completely the same. This thread is about the iOS issue and is being investigated today. Safari doesn't appear to have the same protection on these issues as Chrome does on Android.
You mention the S7 (Android). A solution has been posted several times for that involving the Chrome browser:
Using Chrome, enter the following URL in the address bar:
chrome://flags/#enable-framebusting-needs-sameorigin-or-usergesture
Then enable the highlighted option.
