There must be an app causing those ads to appear. Try checking the recently installed apps before those ads appeared on your phone and uninstall them, observe if ads keeps appearing. You might also have enabled webpages notifications in your browser, try disabling those.
Just like jamesrred's reply, you have to get rid of pop-ads on your Samsung Galaxy A12 by following below steps.
Ads can be really intrusive, especially when they keep popping up on your screen. In most cases, if not all, pop-up ads are caused by a third-party app you recently installed. It is time to get rid of these pop-up invaders and get your phone - and peace of mind - back.
Pop-up ads have nothing to do with the phone itself. They are caused by third-party apps installed on your phone. Ads are a way for app developers to make money, and the more ads that are displayed, the more money the developer makes. This is why some of them are so persistent. You can get rid of pesky ads in a few steps.
Note: If you are experiencing annoying ads while browsing the web, you can install ad blockers with Samsung Internet.
A) Remove the app responsible for the pop-ads.
Step 1. First, enter Safe mode. Your phone won't run any third-party apps in this mode, so you shouldn’t see the pop-up ad anymore.
Step 2. While in Safe mode, navigate to Settings, and then swipe to and tap Apps.
Step 3. From here, you can remove the most recently installed or updated app(s) that might be causing the pop-up ads.
Step 4. To help you find the bad app, you can sort the list to show the most recently installed apps or latest updated apps.
Step 5. Tap thefiltericon. It is on the right side of "Your apps." Then, select your desired sorting option.
Step 6. Finally, select your desired app, and then tapUninstallto remove it from your device.
Step 7. Restart the phone and check if the pop-up ads disappeared. If required, repeat the procedure until you find the culprit.
B) To go into Safe mode with the device powered on:
Step 1. Press and hold the power button. Step 2. Tap and hold Power off. Step 3. Tap Safe mode.
C) To go into Safe mode with the device powered off: Step 1. Press and hold the power button. Step 2. When "Samsung Galaxy powered by Android" shows, release the power button. Step 3. When the Samsung or Samsung Galaxy logo appears, press and hold the volume down button. Keep holding the volume down button until the lock screen appears. Step 4. If you did it correctly, "Safe mode" will appear on the bottom left of your screen.
