Safari shows a pop-up saying "http://exclusiverewards.rewardingzonez.com" and "Congratulations, You are today's lucky visitor, Press OK to continue" I can't close the window and can't go to any other window either. Forced closing of Safari doesn't help as the pop-up is there again when I re-open Safari. Closing the computer doesn't help either nor pressing OK in pop-up. Any ideas how to force the window to close (can't select "close window" from the toolbar)?

After force-quitting, reopen Safari while holding the Shift key.

Yup, it wouldn't help in this case, because the problem isn't due to adware. It's just a scam website using JavaScript to hog your browser.
II'm getting this same pop up on my iPhone 6 it's come up twice already. After I clicked one of those linked stories on Facebook I couldn't cet rid of it so I pressed okay. It came up again. What do I do?
