How can I stop a Just for You gift box pop up?

[AC Question]

Just for You gift box pop up

i have 4 phones on my account and all phones keep getting a pop up with gift box with a red bow with the words "just for you" across the top a gift box underneath and a different app below the box. When u exit out of the pop up another one comes up usually with a similar app. The format is always the same. I spoke to Verizon and they thot it was because we shared the same Google play account... That is not the case... They first FD me if I. Gifting on the myverizon accountt. This did not work, now before I reset my phone I am hoping someone has another suggestion....

Re: Just for You gift box pop up

Welcome to Android Central! Do all of the devices have the same apps installed? Look for common apps between the devices (not counting the ones that were preinstalled), and try uninstalling them (especially if they're games), since one of them might have come with adware.

I had the same start happening on my phone. The only things I have dont were update my phone and download a few apps. Acme markets, snap, ibotta and checkout51. By any chance do you have any of these?

Have either of you been able to stop this spammy pop up yet? I've been dealing with it for several weeks now but can't figure out which app it's associated with.

I've been dealing with it for almost a year and tried numerous things its still happening? Any solutions yet short of a reset?

I FINALLY discovered that it was my free music downloader app. And it seems that MANY, if not MOST of the free ones use that same spam. I was able to switch to one that doesn't pop that JUNK up at any old time, but it does pop it up when I use that particular app. For me that is the best solution I've found. I just haven't had the time to go through and test multiple music downloader apps to find one that does not use it.
