    whenever i visit clutchfans, a popup comes up that says ive been selected to do a survey and win a Samsung Galaxy, Iphone 12, or 3 months of netflix.

    I googled this and its a scam, but why is it popping up on this site?

    Just give the Nigerian prince some money and he'll leave you alone.

    Is this MCU multiverse related?

    You had to google that to make sure it was a scam?

    I am surprised you get this since you're paying member, I thought you didn't get ads? Easy fix is an ad blocker.

    There's a hijacked redirect/ad that's causing your popup. I don't see these because I am running either VPN ad block when mobile, or at home using ad block at router/hardware level.

    Hey, there was no spelling mistakes and it looked like it was really from google. The site address gave it away though.
