Constant weird/annoying pop-ups

I recently got my HTC One M8, love it. But recently I've been having problems with all sorts of weird pop-ups. One of them seems to be from facebook every now and then. Another one is one of those "Congrats, you have just won ____".

Re: Constant weird/annoying pop-ups

I recently got my HTC One M8, love it. But recently I've been having problems with all sorts of weird pop-ups. One of them seems to be from facebook every now and then. Another one is one of those "Congrats, you have just won ____", and the last one pops up and says that my device needs upgraded due to the battery. It actually looks legitimate until you keep reading and see all the spelling errors and it just feels wrong. These all only come up if I open the internet. I have gone through to try and find any peculiar apps that could cause the problem but can't seem to find anything, and I have also not installed the most recent update yet. Thanks for any help!

you have a rogue app installed. start uninstalling.
