"Congratulations! You have won!" pop-ups? Should I worry? | Page 2

All! I have been getting this same pop up out of the blue about 4 days ago.

Factory Reset did not work, as the pop up came up 10 mins after browsing the net.

I went as far as re-flashed my Sony Xperia Z5 device (A clean wipe of the ROM and a new OEM ROM from Sony installed from my computer) and i still get the blasted error (*Note that i got the error AFTER i logged back into my Google account)

Which got me thinking, maybe there is something in our Google accounts that is effecting us.

So i did another wipe, only this time, I did NOT log into my usually Google Account. I made a new one. It's been half a day and so far so good.

**If you just log out the Google Account and don't factory restore your device, it won't change anything as that malware file has been written down locally somewhere.

Try resetting the device, do NOT log back into your Google account.
