Seems you have a transparent proxy that terminates HTTPS traffic from
the target site, re-encrypts/signs it with its own key/certificate and
forwards it to the client. Quite often such intermediate certificates
are self-signed thus breaking the chain of trust.

Check this SO question [1] to better understand and how to 'fix' this
issue.
