Report dodgy ads on the sidebar

Advertising hand sanitiser
Website created 3 weeks ago according to Who Is
No company details on the website

Looks as dodgy as anything - I mean they may have got some stuff to sell but who knows.

How do you report it?

There's another one as well

Hand sanitiser 500ml for £25

Are they Google ads you have on the right sidebar?

Hi OP

Thanks so much for raising this.
These sound like ad-choices ads which, whilst it's annoying, they don't come directly from us.

To block them, we'd need screenshots and URLS - would you be able to get some screenshots and if possible, get us the links to the adverts?

You can do this by turning off wifi/data, clicking the advert and then copying the URL (it will load this without loading the actual advert).

Not a problem

They do look like ad choice ones - when you link to the company you can see that these are very recent companies. who have probably brought shed loads of sanitiser or who are trying to scam people.
