When using the App I am getting Apps for some kind of dodgy callgirl service. Pic attached. Is this something I can block?

Hello @afrikat thanks for letting us know. It looks like this got around our filters - we're going to try and block it. If you see it again, is there an x on the top right corner to hide the ad?

Hi @ObliviousCoalmine ,
Thanks for flagging that. We'll get onto it now. Can you tell us where you were on the app when you saw it, or send us a url to the thread it appeared on?

And @afrikat, we've so far been unable to track this ad down to block it. If you're able to and don't mind, if you see it again, could you click on it so you can tell us what the company advertising it is called? We should then be able to block it.

Stand down @afrikat and @ObliviousCoalmine . We've found the ads and blocked them now. Just let us know if you spot anything like them again.

Ah. Sorry to see this is back already. We'll have a look right now. Thanks for letting us know.

We're blocking as many of these as we can find. Some are proving tricker than others but we'll keep looking.
In the meantime, any detail you can give at all is really useful. Screenshots like this are great, as are any words you can see in the adverts or urls to the thread you were on when you spotted them. The most useful thing for us is the url of the ad itself but we do completely understand that many people won't feel comfortable clicking on them.
Do keep sending them in and we'll do our best.
