The regular Monthly Sweepstakes are no longer using the Bitly links and have resorted to normal PDF links/ displays = which does work.
Troubling issue: ----> But, the weekly 'Instant Win Sweepstakes' Official Winner's List link are still using the Bitly links which is being blocked.
- I just checked the official rules for various Instant Win Sweeps and they have a new "Bitly" links for the winners list and got a 'new warning' ---> Warning! | There might be a problem with the requested link (bitly.com)
- new Bitly links for "Instant Win" winners lists are being blocked
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
We recommend you close your browser window and notify the person who sent you the link.
Bitly displays this warning when a link has been blocked. There are many reasons why a link may be blocked:

AARP IT/ web needs to know there is still a problem going on here.
For now, this issue appears to be resolved. 😎

How about it AARPTeri, care to weigh in here.
Where is the correct March 2022 Sweepstakes Winners List. I went back to a July 2020 post to check the site and the URL is blocked there also.
I don't remember it being a .pdf link in the past. BTW I can open .pdf's all day long with no problems so it has to be something else Just Saying
Your link gave me a warning that the file is using an insecure connection, and there is a potential security risk. I got a warning not to download the file. This is the first time I've gotten a warning for a PDF file.
Hi JoLo, I am with you there, strange that a PDF would trigger a warning like that !!
I just had to run a little test for my own satisfaction and Duck Duck Go browser open the file just fine on my iPad Air, while Chrome still returns the ugly URL warning. Regardless, I am not all that interested in that information to keep poking the devil.
Appears to me that many of the problems we keep experiencing in this forum can be traced to the AARP preferred browser, Google Chrome
Just Saying
7:05 pm just tried link; it works - it's a PDF - you may have PDF blocking somewhere on your browser. 🤔
