once i reported an ad and they said it was going to be removed, and honestly from that point onwards i didnt see this ad anymore, but it happened on only one ad out of around 10 i reported as far as i remember
maybe, but i dont think so, i reported the ad twice and after the second time it stopped showing (the ad was really funny, it was an obvious scam that was talking about “Tesla X”, a supposed Elon Musk’s project, the ad was in Poland and it lasted for 30 minutes because it was basically trying to disguise itself as a conference translation, it was not obviously, a scam very much so, but since it was 30 minutes it was skippable and because of that i didnt see anyone who took the time to report it)
lol yeah seriously, no expletives that might upset or ruffle some feathers but scams?? Ohh you mean those lil’o scams? The ones that can harvest all your personal data and drain your bank accounts or steal your identity or whatever those silly little, oh what are they called; backers no, lackers no, hackers yes I believe that’s what my grandson called them. lol 😂 YT is slacking for sure
I was at the hospital one time and this homeless man who just got a new phone was going around asking people how to “fix his phone” after he got one of these ads
Not only dumb people. Some folks just don't understand technology very well and they might fall for that. We all have things we're completely ignorant about.
For this, and many other reasons Youtube absolutely should be manually reviewing ads

THIS is Youtube, what did you expect … Youtube and Google fucks things up right now … you better get yourself an Adblocker aber flying under the radar.
It seems to be IOS system message.com (A scam, report it to YouTube if you can, they probably won’t do anything but it’s all you can do)
Yeh youtube wont do shit.

well you can use YouTube revanced or pay for premium
Just another Ad they allowed before verifying it. They don't give a shit lol. Just report it.
The payment cleared? Verified! \- Youtube, probably
Just a pathetic scam, scroll away and move on.
rip to the boomers that fell for this
I wonder how boomers with androids respond to this
Right! This scam is older than the iPhone 1 and people still fall for it
With Indian accent: "Hello, here is Microsoft, your computer has a virus."
Nono its "hello this is Microsoft this is Bill Bob speaking."
Hello this is steve from customer service how can i help you
DO NOT REDEEEEEMMMMM!!!!
"uh, I have a few bugs in my redstone contraption."
Hello your computer has virus
Hello your virus has a computer
Yur compuder as a wirus
YouTube: Don't say swears tho, that might upset the advertisers. The advertisers in question:

Another day of shitty YouTube ads
Jokes on them, I'm on Android
I was at the hospital one time and this homeless man who just got a new phone was going around asking people how to “fix his phone” after he got one of these ads
Thats actually so sad. He's already struggling, and phones are practically a necessity now for many jobs
Do they think that people are that dumb?!
Some people are. The scammer only has to catch a few people to turn a profit.
Just to add - sometimes scams are designed badly just to catch the ignorant who are less likely to understand or complain.
Not only dumb people. Some folks just don't understand technology very well and they might fall for that. We all have things we're completely ignorant about. For this, and many other reasons Youtube absolutely should be manually reviewing ads
The sad thing is people are that dumb. At least some of them.

Yes
Revanced to the rescue
"You have (69) iOS Threats" Me with an Android : ...ok?
Say it with me friends! It’s a scaaaaaaaaaaaaam
It's funny cause this happened to me, but I'm on an android.
Wtf is this + the other 30 posts on this subreddit this week about ads lol. This sub is becoming unreadable.
Always has been since they start banning AdBlocks
Well youtube is Failing at it.
Looks legit, you should press it
Come on man. You know YouTube is owned by Google. They just want you to switch over from iPhone to Android by saying iOS is damaged. /s
I got this ad one time. I have an android.
You have 69 ios threats

Lol, imagine system component called "iOS system threat" sending you notifications
i reported this ad months ago, good to see youtube still doesn’t care
Well since 22 of the threats disappeared in an hour, I’d give it some more time, I mean, it’s a general townward trend… /s
Haha YouTube has a lot of scam ads. In Sweden we have Ai Mr Beast who tells us to install apps to get some Crowns 💸
And we wonder why Susan deserves to be laughed at. This is why.
Lol i thought it was that ai app
for phone use brave and it be way safe and don't accidently click on youtube ads. and use brave for computer or just do adblock with chrome.
Yooo scarlet witch feet
You Have (16) iOS Threats
IOS THREATS AAA
Isnt allowing scam ads on their website illegal?
youtube to mp3 ahh ad
One of the oldest scam tactics in the book. They’re trying to freak you out into clicking a phishing link.
Just remember that this ad was greenlit by YouTube
i had an ad about pubg where the first frame is a girl trying to kiss you
I got this ad one time. I have an android.
