This Time Google™ Adsense™ Serves Up Evil

I saw this ad on my blog, and was not clear what it was about, so I clicked through (generally a no-no, but I've done it about 3 times simply because the ad made me wonder about what was behind it).

What is this an ad for? It's an ad for ACTON Marketing LLC, of Lincoln Nebraska, and what they are selling is a method to get people to sign up for NSF (insufficient funds) overdraft protection.

Yes, those scummy fees on bank cards, and these scummy marketers have a program to try to browbeat people into explicitly opting into those programs, as is now required by law.

So, once again, I am getting advertisements from the dark side,

Please note: once again, that I do not vet, nor do I endorse any ad that appears on my site, and I reserve the right to mock both the ads that appear on my site, as well as the advertisers.

Also, please note, this should be in no way construed as an inducement or a request for my reader(s) to click on any ad that they would not otherwise be inclined to investigate further. This would be a violation of the terms of service for Google Adsense.
