Hi! I got a new Smartphone some days ago (it's my first one) and now I get a notification that my smartphone is infected by 4 viruses when I visit steamgifts. I'm pretty sure that it is a false notification, because the translation to my language (german) is terrible and it wants me to install an app in order to remove the virus. (Of course I did not install it).

Is there a way to get rid of this notification? It comes from wn0serauam.pw and shows me the google logo in the background.
But when i search for this site google doesn't show me much.

Thanks in advance!

Oh, I forgot to mention, it's a Smartphone with Andoid (Samsung Galaxy A5). And the message doesn't pop up every time i visit SG.

Sounds like something else you installed is spamming your phone.

Hmm....like I said, it is my first smartphone, so I don't know much about it, but to me it seems a bit strange that another app is spamming my smartphone only when I visit steamgifts. If it is another app, I would think that it would also spamm my smartphone when I visit other websites or do some other things like playing games or whatever. But thanks for your reply! I will keep it in mind :)

Browse on Firefox with uBlock Origin addon, problem solved.
I would also do a scan with Malwarebytes just to be sure.

I got that pop-up too. Didn't show up again after I closed it.
Clearing browser data usually gets rid of it.

Unfortunately the pop-up came again after I closed it :(

At the moment I tried using Dolphin with add-block and pop-up-block activated. Today it worked so far, hope it won't come back.

Just to make sure that my phone is not infected by a virus I used kaspersky Antivirus & Security to check my system and it did not find anything (what a surprise) ;-)

Thanks to all of you for your help! I really appreciate it :)
