how to stop popups

no matter what I do, including all the online advice from Apple, I cannot stop popups - I have reloaded, updated all software, blocked popups, selected warn when visiting fraudulent sites, I have no extensions, but still, I get random popups that take me to shopping sites, dating sites or other random sites
