http://bit.ly/2****** automatically launches new tabs in Firefox (Android). I can not find a way to block this foreign intervention?

When I log in to my phone pops up an unwanted game that offers only one installation option. Since I do not want it, I close this window. If then the phone is logged in and left unused, automatically new tabs are added to Firefox: eg. "http://bit.ly/2HJNeTZ" or "http://bit.ly/2UtxDSB" and still others. Since I do not want them and preventively not open, I have to delete all in the overview of stored tabs. How can I block this unwanted access (a kind of popup) to my phone?

It sounds as though one or more apps needs to be removed from your device to stop them from opening web pages. Do you know what app is the troublemaker and can you remove it using

Android Settings > Apps > tap specific app > Uninstall
