Malicious website blocked by Malwarebytes

[Fuzzypumper]

Every page I visit on Android Central generates a warning from Malwarebytes Premium about blocking a malicious website called fearfulflag.com, at various ip addresses. I'm posting this here since I can't find an appropriate tech support contact on Android Central (they use the dreadful endless scrolling design -- ugh!)

Hope the right person sees this!

I'll see if anyone can look into this for you.

Thanks -- I see it's still happening as of now (9/14/16 @2028)

Just entering the words "android central" into Google generates a Malewarebytes warning for me.

Every time I come here on my pc I get a pop up ad about IBM cloud services. It pops up every 15 seconds.
I think this site is full of Malware

I get the same message, also from Malwarebytes. Does someone from Android Central want to tell us what it is?

Using an ad blocker may help

Yeah this forum website--It get frozen at times & can't Scrolling
too. What I do is delete AC-Entry from my Favs in IE-11 and
open the Site in Google and Add AC entry icon again

Now with the MBAM-Alert. I'd say to install the MBAM-Mobile ver.
Carry on the Scan and report results Shown. Also try on the
"Adblocker browser" if may Help you out. Good Luck

Oops! Apologies to the OP but I re-read the post and you've the MBAM
premium installed..So please disregard the download of Mbam-Mobile

Wanna know another bug..I tried to Edit this post, when realised the
OP had MBAM installed. But I couldn't..clicked on [Reply] then

click the [Go Advanced] didn't popup the option to Edited
Neither the [Delete-option] So I create a new reply..

Finally if this Mbam is a false positive: What about Un-install
Reinstall Mbam..Try on to see if it comes with the same warning

I'm getting the fearful flag one too as of today 21st September 2016

Has this cleared up? We reported a number of these last week to our ad partners.

 

[Fuzzypumper]

Yay! Just checked -- looks like things are shipshape again -- no more MWB warnings! Thanks for fixing that!

 

[James Falconer]

No problem! Great to have you with us!

This has been happening to me a lot the last few days. I didn;'t have malwarebytes installed till now, and now it is alerting me on this site. Before I would keep getting pop ups on this site opening another browser window with advertisements about PC repair, or VIRUS scan. This site is infected somewhere and it's the only one I have issues with!

I recognize that AC-Tech Dpt. is doing what it can To keep malware
away, but due to high traffic of visitors is Not easy to achieve this task

I do too on Oct-07 and 08-2016. The only website that I accessed was-ACentral
and MBAM daily Scan.Detected 2-PUP called SpyHunter and Reimage.Repair

Weird because don't have these programs installed. In addition often
times when I Logged In AC the hated "Java-Script" pops up

Spamming is active too..on Oct-07-2016: an AC member sent a PM
telling Me that He-She is a richer and would like to deposit some
Millions$ on my account. Reported to AC-Admin: PS fix this

It's not that hard to fix. Seems the "Techs" don't care.
