Didn't believe this was a thing until I actually saw it myself.I bank at a small, local credit union. I recently cleared my autocomplete settings so plugged their name into #Google to get back to their homepage.The Sponsored result IS NOT my bank's website. But is skinned the same. 100% a #phishing site served as a Google ad above the legitimate business website.This is a major problem, my friends.

The site's redirect loop appears skinned just like the bank's site. But if you remove the additional query parameters you get a bogus Ameriglass website instead.

@ericmann@tekton.network Stop using #Google and run adblocking software wherever and whenever you can, that's all you can do these days. Google doesn't give a shit about you or the quality of their results, they care only about making higher profits every quarter. They're not going to fix this, and you shouldn't be supporting them.
