Why is chrome opening random webpages?

[seekohl]

I have Samsung Galaxy note 9 mobile phone. Whenever I open an app or do a google search, random websites keep opening up. I scanned my mobile for malwares and there is no malware. How do I get rid of this randomness?
This is very annoying as it happens every single time I use any app or do a search.

Welcome to Android Central! You most likely installed an app that came with adware. You may have to uninstall apps one by one until the problem goes away. If this only recently started happening, start with the apps that you most recently installed (or were most recently updated). You generally don't have to worry about well-established apps like Facebook or Whatsapp. Focus on the ones from lesser-known developers.
