Google advertisement for "Wordle" returns a spam fishing result

  • Link warning, this site a rather quite aggressive fishing scam. The Google Ad displays that the link will resolve to "www.nytimes.com", however it instead redirects to a [spam fishing site](https://lpeedxcddfgffdsxxxzzs.z13.web.core.windows.net/index...).

    My primary question is how is this possible?

  • Google's ads have been a headache in the office for a while. Older users don't know to ignore the first screen or so of fake promoted "results" in favor of the actual search results. This has led to multiple phishing attempts.

  • You should post a screenshot of what you're seeing, because I don't see any ads or spam phishing results.

  • You can use the three dot menu to the right of each URL in search results to submit feedback.
