Has anyone ever been stalked by an advert?

I was on Facebook the other day and some weird advert was there- it was basically an extract of a novel of some woman shagging a werewolf. I expanded the advert and clicked report.

Since then I’ve had to report it about 15 times as it keeps popping up under a different name and even weirder is I have just had a text message from an email address (how does that even happen) and it’s the sodding novel!

Has anyone had this before and successfully stopped it? I’m not entirely sure why it thinks I’m it’s target audience but it’s certain it wants me to read it!

Problem is, even if you're clicked it to report you've interacted with it. Nowadays, they're even giving the same ads even if you slow down scrolling to read and DON'T even click it! Once you've shown any interest in an online ad, no matter if you're just reporting, it will keep coming back to haunt you! Maybe there's a block function? Sorry I'm no longer on FB as I find it harmful to my mental health. But on YouTube you can block some ads.

A woman shagging a werewolf is mental though... 😕
