Spam? All-New Chevy Silverado

[TripleDigitRide]

I am on Tapatalk, and when viewing unread threads, there is one titled "All-New Chevy Silverado". When I click on the thread, it redirects me to a website. Anyone else notice this?

Same here. Sent from my SCH-I605 using Tapatalk

[TripleDigitRide]

OK. At least I know it's not just me.

[TripleDigitRide]

If it matters, this is the link it's redirecting me to: http://m.chevrolet.com/silverado-1500-pickup-truck.html?cmp=OLA_DISPLAY_7995725_106115291_279108365_0#.UzzfUMko6BY

[ironsniper1]

I get it aswell

[KKing]

Weird, I'm not getting it for some reason

[Oh Shoot]

Must be some kind of Tapatalk specific hack.

 

On PC, searched all new content and forums in general. No "silverado" cept your post and few old hits in Trading Post.

It's tapatalk's way of getting ads to show up and bypass ad block apps.

I use the mobile theme for the site and have no issues whatsoever

I'll add that to the list of reasons why I don't use tapatalk.

Yep.

I may be wrong, but I think it only happens if you use the free version of Tapatalk. Anyone chime in here?

Yeah, the tapatalk devs are notorious for changing their minds frequently. "Paid versions only, oh wait free version only and we're not refunding you if you bought the app. Oh, just kidding we're back to having a paid version if you don't like Chevy ads."

[TripleDigitRide]

I am and have been using a paid version of Tapatalk. That's the only times I've ever seen something like that. I haven't noticed it today.

[Troutburger]

I've got the pd version and see the chevy spam too.

[glowdotGlock]

I've seen it too.

[TripleDigitRide]

I'm seeing it again. As someone mentioned, it's probably Tapatalk sneaking advertising into the mix. While it is done in a way to appear as every other topic/thread, it does have a blue tab in the top right corner, making it easy to spot.

[KKing]

Seeing it tonight for the first time on tapatalk. It's in both my "unread" and "participated" lists

[Metalhead]

This is why I view the forum on my iPhone without tapatalk. I don't need a secondary program to type messages. Get off my lawn!

[Tobashadow]

Paid app, running Adaway, not seeing anything
