Over the last week or so I have had a 2degrees mobile customer loyalty' scam website pop up when browsing on my Android tablet. The address is 'mobileluckyclient.club'.
This seems to be a recycling of a similar scam that was doing the rounds last year.
I found one recent scam report on it here: https://www.signal-arnaques.com/en/scam/view/168407
What disturbs me the most about this is the manner in which it appears. I will be reading a website article or something and then the scam site loads with no warning and without me triggering anything, loading over the page I was on. It's not a pop-up, it actually loads a new page in the tab.
These are legit sites such as:

https://www.telegraph.co.uk/films/2017/09/07/kathleen-kennedy-star-wars-universe-safe-hands
https://m.benzinga.com/article/14043295
I cannot reproduce the behavior on demand by re-visiting the sites.
I am using Chrome.
It almost seems like my device has been infected with some kind of malware.
Has anyone else experienced this issue?
