Normally when
browsing items
, clicking on 'Buyout price' in the 'Quick Facts' pane to the right of a given page redirects to auction house values on The Undermine Journal. However, today I noticed that it instead redirects me to a website about advertising and marketing recovery. Having observed this consistently while browsing random items on the database, I assume it's a widespread occurrence. I'm using Google Chrome if that's a factor.

Could be a bad ad on Wowhead, but also one on the Undermine Journal. Hover the links first to check they point to the UJ site.

This isn't something I've been able to replicate or have had other complaints about. All of the 'Buyout price' links send users to theunderminejournal.com. We don't have any variability to that. I also don't see a bad advertisement having any impact on the links on the site, unless one somehow escaped it's boundaries (which isn't impossible, just uncommon). If this is consistently happening, I'd recommend trying in a different browser, or incognito mode, see if that issue persists there. If it doesn't, it's likely to be isolated to your main browser. If it does persist, it's possible something on your computer is causing a problem (try then on a different computer to verify behavior).

You get the redirect on TUJ only when your traffic to TUJ has been proxied through a third party without your permission.
I've updated the redirect with a better explanation. Sorry for the confusion.

In this case, the links on hover do not point to TUJ. It's not a "bad ad" causing it, per se, but the intended behavior of one of Wowhead's service providers.
