Over in FaceBook Carl Nogueira is reporting "Congratulations you've won 50 bucks and "don't close this window whatever you do" messages are popping up.

Anybody else seeing these? Can someone give the management a screen capture or any details?

I'm not seeing anything like that when I am here.

Carl got the same popup while surfing the MLB website. Everybody stay aware and report any similar popups when visiting GameSquad. Thanks.

Sounds like he has malware on his PC. Much more likely than both sites being compromised.

The behavior was subsequently seen on other sites by the same user.

Something on his machine.

No issues for me. I surf with an ad-blocker which probably helps. Like the others, my guess is that it is his PC and not this site.

Good to see we have Jazz looking out for us though!

I keep getting windows popping up that say the IFT is superior to the IIFT. Malware! I think I've got it too!

Of course something like that would have to be malware. Only and ignorant, evil and selfish hacker could conceive of something so heinous!

Those saying that the IIFT is better are many more, proportionally to the number of columns of that table...
