Hi
Happy new year,
An advertiser using your site, via the Ads by Google listing, is possible trading freduantly.
Can you help ?
Is this the correct forum to post this ?
Can email/post further details if you can help.
Thanks

The ad content is controlled / moderated by Google and not this site. PGPSW and many others sites just allow Google to use the space in return for payment if someone clicks an ad. I'm not sure there's much PGPSW can do directly as the ads appear in rotation and will appear in many sites across the internet.
An e-mail to Google might help but without proof of their FRAUDULENT activity you may be out of luck. |

I would recommend that you report it directly to Google or at least have a look at what their policy about this is. Be careful though, if you are not correct in your allegations then your complaint may be construed as libel. 
You could also contact Trading Standards if this is a UK based merchant.

 to the forums!
You are correct, this is the wrong forum  . The correct one would be Retailers to buy from or avoid.
I'd suggest that you directly PM one of the moderators, since new users may not post these type of complaints directly in the forums (see the Forum Rules).
