I was browsing sites for "ahem" adult fancy dress for the wife, sexy nurse etc. And I was clicking on different web page addresses not taking much notice and this site came up, that I can only describe as adult.
Within seconds, a long notice appeared accusing me of downloading restricted items, and the page froze and the only way I could unfreeze it was to pay £100
I immediately closed Safari but on starting Safari again the frozen page and notice was still there.
I have since remedied the issue, but want to know if my iPad has been infected by some kind of malware.
