Sorry if I posted in the wrong place.
Lately, maybe a few weeks ago, I've had this weird thing happen with my IPad Mini 4 that effects both Safari and Google Chrome. Whenever I browse legit, safe sites I get this message:
It shows an ok button and the back button doesn't work. It simply redirects back to this. The only way to get out of it is to click to ok button. How do I get rid of it?
iPad Mini, iOS 9.3.5, null

Yes it happens when I've opened links to sites such as knowable and distractify, pretty standard sites- not malicious.
Occurs on 4g and wifi.
I've just located a clear browser data option within the Facebook app (Menu - Settings - Account Settings - Browser - Clear data). I haven't reproduced the message since I did this about 30 mins ago, if that works I'll update here.

I'm having the same issue, but in addition to safari, it also happens when opening web links through the Facebook app.
I've deleted the app and reinstalled, cleared safari all the browser history through settings, and updated to latest iOS...
Unfortunately it's still occurring....
Any other things to try?
Seems like malware.... I was under the impression that iOS was impervious to malware...

Does it only happen when opening links thru Facebook app? If that's correct, the web links posted on Facebook app is malicious.
Do you access the internet through WiFi router? Have you checked your router for security breach?

You can rule out your (hacked) WiFi router as the source of the problem.

Sounds like browser redirect happens when you tap a link in Facebook app. If that's the case, that link may be booby trapped.
Thanks for all the suggestions. I did most of them suggested here and on my provider's site (except buying a content blocker). But it kept on happening. Final fix seemed to wrok - got rid of a few apps I'd installed recently. I think the culprit may have been the photo editor, Everfilter.
Settings - Safari - Clear history and website data
I don't use Chrome for iOS.
Same thing here, on my iphone. Haven't yet updated to 10.2. The first screenshot is from Pinterest. Next 2 from Twitter
See Clear your Safari browser history and set up content blockers on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support. Might pay to go into the Advanced sub menu and clear everything.

TThanks for the help everyone! I clear the site data on chrome. So far so good.
I double click home button and swipe it off screen. But I still get them several times a day!!
Settings- Safari- block pop-ups
