Google never filter scam or phishing site unless there is no report. When you are going to do a financial deal then we have to be more careful. Why should we depend on Google ads? If you are using a site then bookmark it if you can't remember the site address. We are using smartphones and computers, so we should improve yourself as a smart guy as well. Scammer gets success due to our stupidity. Everyone knows about the most of scam methods, but likely we just ignore to learn.

Why do we even talk about clicking on Google Ads when there is such a simple option that we don't see them at all, and it's completely free? For me, anyone who uses a browser without AdBlock is someone who shouldn’t even use the Internet at all, because let’s be honest the thing is so simple that it’s not a problem to explain it to an 8-year-old within 15 minutes.

I'm just wondering how it's possible that there are so many unintelligent people on the Internet, so it's become a real paradise for scammers - money that literally falls from the sky and you don't even have to get up from a comfortable armchair...

Google is not filtering ads that comes along the way, they automate approving of those ads and these scammers are good in using keywords to manipulate where the ads are coming, I ignore those ads coming from popular sites like Coinmarketcap because scammers are very active in the game of deception, they are good in cloning sites and they are good in marketing them.

Those aren't detected by google that's why they looks like a legit link, ads, or offer.

We all know that google is very popular and that's why scammers used it as a tool to fool people with their sketchy ads.

They are using some effective marketing strategy to attract people and lure them. They are using "EASY MONEY", "FREE GIVEAWAYS", "DOUBLE YOUR COINS", and etc., so be aware with that Google Ads. Huge losses in an assets are not a joke, it is not that easy to grow your assets so if you can be aware and observe the platforms that you are using. Avoid clicking any links from google or any sites, and avoid downloading suspicious softwares.

As I come from IM (Internet Marketing) field I’m not surprised to see google failing to stop such a scam right under it’s nose, but then again it’s not the first scam and it won’t be last one either which was executed on a google platform.

I’m currently referring to the scam which was targeted towards Uniswap customers, where an ad was created on google, and that ad was leading Uniswap customers to a clone Uniswap site.

Further that clone site asked users to input their seed, and I don’t need to tell you’ll what happens next when those users entered their seed details.

Lastly I hope that beginners and pros will learn from this and they’ll not let their guard down just because it’s a google ad, and hopefully they’ll always remember that google doesn’t verify these ads (for potential scams), as they’re paid to display them and revenue from ads is all that matters to them.
