Strange advertising: Come on (left) leads to ad (right)
Want a good scare? Try landing on a Facebook ad come-on like the one left above where splashes of what look like blood spot the face of dot-com winner and present-day Shark Kevin O’Leary. It’s just an ad for a ho-hum way to make money (sure) but the first thing you see makes you think O’Leary has been bludgeoned. It also suggests he has died. This is a fairly common practice on the part of whomever runs ads on Facebook. You can find questions on the Internet from readers wondering why Facebook keeps saying famous people have died when they haven’t. Strange, to be sure.
