Hello Boggin and jraju, thanks for your input. I have not yet done anything as I am opening the the AdFender console and checking on the cookies list to endeavor to see what website visit shows the ticked red texted scorecardresearch cookie. coming on here and also my last posting has not produced it. What has produced it is my going to the Daily Mail website although there are no spurious adverts being shown on there. I will now post this current reply and see if the advert appears here!

Xas1953NC:
Although I have not carried out any in depth action to resolve this issue there has been no further occurrence of spurious adverts appearing on this forum so am adding a resolved to it.

Shane:
I dont control the ads, google does. Which of course is a pain some times. But if there is bad ads on their google normally gets to them quickly and yanks them, as long as someone reports it :-)

Hello Shane, here is a part screengrab of one of the adverts. I selected it's properties and saw part of the link read GoogleAds. I also took note of the website offering it's Services and WOT rated it as being iffy.

Shane:
I hate ads like that, and those types that trick people into clicking it are not allowed by google. But since most of google is automated these creeps keep making fake accounts with google and putting out these bad ads. Happens to them all, not just google. This is just one of the tricks of these guys.

And as funny as it is, I make money from ads, yet because of this crap I always use an ad blocker. Talk about irony lol
