Your math is wrong because you say that Google spends 0 dollars at the moment to fight scam ads.

If it is true, then Google execs should be in jail right now.

And proves point again that Google does not care about filtering content and it is profitable to accept money from criminals.

Ofcourse if your paycheck depends of criminals money then it is very dumb to share that profit to hire more people to fight malware content.

In my country there are many Google scam ads which feature local celebrities/doctors, but it is impossible to remove those ads, because Google never removes them. Zero response from Google. Even Police cannot help because nobody from Google responses.

So I guess it is intentional to spread those spam ads.

Even if users report those ads, Google 99% of time never takes an action to remove spam ads.

With few thousand people you can remove those reported ads...
