The "sponsored content" that appears on the right hand side of the Home screen has no caret to report a problem. One of these that I foolishly clicked on, immediately flashed me a blue screen, alert sounds, and of course a number to call to be released from this mess. It also cautions not to reboot your computer. We've all seen these before. I was able to close it out and get on my way. My question is, is there any way to report this to Facebook? Anything you try to report has to fit in one of their buckets. These don't fit in any of them. And of course there is no "for all other issues..."
They have to get that bait out of there. Any ideas?
@PD74,
Maybe try reporting it to Facebook as spam.
Also, if you could get the URL of the bad page that the ad directs your browser to, you could report that URL to Google/Chrome and they will then block their browsers from going to that page:
