The advertising areas of the P2P IF often contain scam investment products that are supposedly recommended by Martin Lewis. For me they are currently trying to tempt me to invest in Bitcoin Trader. Please be aware that this is NOT supported by Martin in any way. It is a complete scam to try to part us from our cash.
Does anyone know how these scam adverts are allowed? Should they be reported somewhere to get them removed?

If adverts appear, perhaps ML should be informed?

Down the very, very bottom of the page there's a 'Report Ad' link, but that just opens a new post window for the thread, so not sure what's happening there.
To its left though there is a Report Abuse link and that has further links to report things like trademark infringements etc. If reporting to ML/MSE, they may appreciate that link.

I think that might be to do with the browser and/or ad blockers. Worked ok in Safari, screenshot below - you can choose which ad to report, but had to turn off all blockers with Firefox Win 10 and it still didn't display properly. The ads are Pro-Boards not ours.

Thanks for advice all. I'll try and report it next time it pops up.
