Coin Miner Trojans on BGS Pages

General

I have been getting notifications of CoinMiner Trojans on BGS pages when I am browsing their website.

Not sure if this is a situation where the site has been compromised and they don’t know about it, or their adverts are infected. But just a warning for every body to make sure their virus software is picking it up and blocking it.

Thanks. Checked but mines fine.

I have been getting the same warnings from Malwarebytes, and I was suspecting the BGS page. Thanks for confirming.
