Why doesn't it make sense? It is hijacking your browser with redirects, just like a lot of porn sites do. Certain browser security settings or addons will make unnoticeable, while people with lower settings will get hit. Some anti-virus software will flag it, some won't. On my phone using opera it doesn't happen. At home with my Avast shields up I don't see it. When I disable Avast to play games I get redirected off the site constantly.

The thing with these attacks is don't click any links just close the browser. If you click links on the redirects you take the chance of installilng a trojan or other malicious software Just close the browser window and fix your security.
Doesn't make sense because I haven't installed any new virus / malware / pop-up blocker and I don't get redirected away anymore yet others do. Not changed a single thing since it first started occuring.
