Get rid of the ******* fake virus popups!
Get rid of the ******* fake virus popups! I use a fully patched Mac with High Sierra. I get these stupid popups multiple times a day, only when visiting Yahoo. Yahoo Comments is the worst offender right now.
Hi Todd,
Thank you for getting back to us. Would you please try the below troubleshooting steps. That should resolve the issue with the page automatically redirecting.

When I am on Yahoo homepage or Yahoo News homepage, my page gets redirected initially to 'fueladsale.com', then a series of url's appear almost too fast to read. Sometimes the last one I see is 'virustraffic.com'. For some reason, Google seems to know nothing about these sites.
Then the Mac beeps three times loudly, and a page pops up that says I have multiple infections (which I do not). I took a screenshot of the scareware page, which I will be happy to send you.
YOU REALLY NEED TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS!
