if you use ublock origin you should be OK, it warns you when you try to access lubuntu.net

Indeed:

uBO has prevented the following page from loading:

"FAKElubuntu.net I wont give backlinks too"

The page was blocked because of a matching filter in uBlock filters – Badware risks.

What is it triggered by?

I have not used unlock in years, since NoScript as a side-effect of not running scripts tends to block almost everything anyway (in particular ads), but maybe I should install it again after all for things like this.
