TL;DR Summary

Scammers are targeting older Americans through malvertising campaigns executed through fake Google ads. Malvertising is a form of fake online advertising that uses ads that look real to spread malware to people's devices. The scammers create hundreds of fake websites via the web hosting platform Weebly to host fake content that looks real so that the ads they place on Google can be validated and approved. The main way they do this is by making their websites look as legitimate as possible. To protect yourself, have good antivirus software on all your devices.
