Default Getting redirected to a fake java update page when I go to forums

Using chrome, had to post link from phone so hope it works.

I got a few phishing warnings on the forums. I have a feeling it's a malicious Ad that's in the mix. I just spammed refresh until another set of ads rotated in and the warning went away.

Edit: It just happened again. I'll try to capture a SS next time it happens.

Similar shit in Chrome for me at home. Antivirus and antispyware scan of machine turned up nothing beyond the usual assortment of tracking cookies to nuke. Removed www.project1999.com from javascript whitelist and it stopped happening.
