Have other folk on Accy Web had the what I think is called a pop up that appears every time they log in saying Quote, " you have an unread message, you are eligable for a gift of up to £1000.

It is a scam, the only way I have got rid of it in the past is to delete the stuff in my history (or empty the Cache).....I am aware that you are a Luddite and might struggle to empty your cache...so google how to do it Taddy.
I would explain it but I am not sure if you would be able to follow my instructions.

on top of that i have had more stupid emails than normal. won this that and another from shops we never use plus all that bitcoin rubbish. i just deleat the lot without ever reading them. wonder how many do not and get scammed.
My e-mail program recognises this crap and sends it straight to spam...and it empties every week....so I rarely see this stuff.
I also have an ad-blocker so annoying pop ups do not get through....or very rarely anyway.
