.@AdSense @TeamYouTube still doing a terrible job of being able to report ads that are clearly misleading, scams or lead to malware downloads...
Why is it so hard to have a simple ! button then report options, one of which reads 'Scam / Misleading'?
unfortunately it’s just the way the ad tech industry works. All CTAs will go through dfp to get counted and prevent fraudulent ad impressions/clicks from being counted prior to the user actually hitting a landing page. There is an approval process for people using Google’s tools

I do wonder who the accountability falls on though? Say somebody followed one of these ads, installed something and their system was ruined, card details phished or whatever other scenario. I bet you Google peace out at that point and claim no wrong doing on their part..

I completely agree - it'll be turned around onto the user and you'll get a blanket message about "we'll do the best to improve things in the future". Truth is, the ad industry is pretty messy. The scale of manual reviewing of absolutely every add isn't feasible in the same way

but as you can see... it’s a little hit and miss

this potentially might be of use - long winded way to approach it, but nonetheless: https://support.google.com/adsense/troubleshooter/1190500?hl=en-GB …
