Misleading ad by Filmora

[LuKaRo]

Hi,

you're right, this is definitely a misleading advertisement, and it's more than unethical, they are illegal by Googles Ad policy: https://support.google.com/adspolicy/answer/6020955?hl=en As a matter of fact, we have just discussed about these ads here on the mailinglist, and I think, it's important that someone approaches Google (or whatever site they appear on) about this.

But this should probably be done by someone from the same country the ads where visible in. Do you think, you could report this ad to Google? https://support.google.com/google-ads/troubleshooter/4578507?hl=en That would be a great help for the project! Otherwise let us know, then we'd need to find someone else who can do it.

Thanks a lot for reporting!
