This ad popped up today. There's no way in hell I'm going to click on it to get the URL for you, but I'm on Safari if that helps. I don't know the intent of the ad or who paid for it, but given it can be "read" in a number of ways, I wonder if you might want to block it?

Interesting, I had it a couple of weeks ago and they said that they'd blocked it.

Threatening ad | Mumsnet

I've just been on a thread and this ad was in the middle of it. I didn't click and have no idea what it's for, but it appears to be a terrorist threat...

Hi OP

Thanks for flagging this and we're sorry that it has appeared. If previously blocked, its likely hiding behind a new URL. If you're able, can you please click the ad and send us the URL to the page it leads you to? You can do this in incognito. You can also turn data and wifi off and then click, which should load the URL without loading the page.

I managed to take a screengrab of it but the ad disappeared within seconds and a more innocuous one took its place. If I get it again, I will click on it with wifi off and let you know...
