Unfortunately, Google promoted a malicious Bitcoin wallet on Youtube

According to the Reddit posting published on March 26, Youtube Video - sharing Platform reportedly ran a malicious ad for Bitcoin (BTC) wallet Electrum for mistakes.
Viewing persons interested in advertising were referred via a common scamming method called typosquatting or URL hijacking to a malicious link. The Reddit post warned the public about promoting a malware version of Elektrum by a user named mrsxeplatypus, describes how the scam ad worked:

The malicious ad is covered as a real Electrum ad (except a man whose Russian accent is distorted and who explains what to do). You even need to go to the correct link in the video (electrum.org), but you can start downloading the bad EXE file immediately when you click on the ad. As you can see in the image, electrum.org is the URL to which I have been sent, not electrum.org.

The publication reached Google to check that the advertisement was true with this story reported in The Hard Fork. A representative answered the information request and said that, after the ad was reported to them, "appropriate action" was taken.
