For the second time this year, I'm getting a "Spin and Win" scam pop up every time I open Hedgehog.
I will regretfully cease using U H if this can't be stopped.
Please help. Anyone else having this issue?

No, no pop-ups at UHH on my systems. Possibly another site put something in your browser?

It happens on my iPhone--not on the iPad or IMac.
It is very annoying, but it is not a reason to cease using UH.

Tried my android phone, and no issues there either (my computer is Windows).

Hope you guys can resolve it on your devices - malware is getting out of hand these days.

No problem here. Are you using a malware program?

Pretty simple, if you go to a site that is not using HTTPS then by default it is not secure. No real need for secure web site services if it is a forum of text messages right? If you were entering bank/credit card numbers then that is a different story of course.
