It can be really dangerous to interact with online advertisements that come your way, especially if they are delivered via Exerciers.mobi and other unreliable adware servers.

ERROR #268d3x8938 pop-ups

ERROR #268d3x8938 pop-ups are fake system alerts, so if you see one, you should not trust it. Our researchers believe the warning might be prepared by hackers who may seek to scam their victims over the phone since the message should ask the user to call 1-855-624-0192. The mentioned telephone alone should show it is a scam because Microsoft does not have a helpline; instead, users can contact the support by visiting the official company’s web page. Therefore, users who notice ERROR #268d3x8938 pop-ups on their browser should eliminate them at once with no hesitation. If you have no idea how to get rid of it, you could check the instructions available at the end of this article.
