Google Ads has become another way for malicious actors to spread spam and adult sites. Recent reports have highlighted that fraudsters are abusing Google Ads invites to push their malicious content. Google Ads is Google's advertising platform, and its invitations are mainly used by companies to do advertising. However, fraudsters have found a way to abuse them and are using them to promote spam and malicious adult sites.
Google has done a great job of monitoring Google Ads and stopping malicious activity, but it has not been able to stop the abuse of its invitatons. Fraudsters have been able to use them to send out links to spam and malicious adult sites. The links are sent out in messages that appear as if they're from legitimate businesses. They usually have a link that leads to the malicious adult site.
Google has responded by taking down the malicious ads. However, it's not clear if the report has done enough to stop it. While Google Ads has been able to stop some malicious actors, it is still facing the problem of invitations being abused to promote spam and adult sites.
Google is aware of the situation and is actively looking for ways to stem the flow of spam and malicious adult sites. It is important that users be wary of any Google Ads invitation they receive. Those who receive such invitations should take the necessary steps to ensure they're not putting themselves or their data at risk.
