Not sure where to post this, I tried looking at ‘Support’ but all I could find was account issues, which this isnt. Im not even sure if any action could be taken. I post it here in the hope it reaches the relevant people.

Like the title says, there I was on youtube watching a bit of classic Elvis and up pops an advert related to GW2.. but it wasnt for the game, it was a gold seller!

A gold seller advertising through the pop up adverts that appear on youtube as you watch the video.

In very small print on the right hand side of the advert it says ‘Ads by Google’, if that helps.

Cant even watch Elvis in peace without dam gold spammers, what is the world coming to!

Can you report the ad to Youtube? Gold sellers are scams, so they should be able to take the ads out of circulation.

I agree, google’s ad team seems to be the right place to go, although it might be ANet/NCSoft that has to make the complaint.

I’ve reported phishing sites, etc, to google before. They are usually pretty quick about taking them down.
