Whenever I am on Google and am on a website, if my phone locks when I come to unlock it again it says "connection interrupted" and then a strange website pops up tryinf to tell me my phone needs cleaning and telling me to download this app (i obviously don't download the app as i know its a scam) or other strange websites pop up. Ive tried running virus checks and they come back clear. Does anyone know how to get rid of this problem? Thank you in advance.

Have you tried clearing your Browsing History, Cookies etc on Google Chrome?

Choose the setting All-Time when clearing your History etc.

Have you tried MalwareBytes app?
