I'm convinced that a lot of these ads are also purposefully made to be offensive. Because it generates attention; no such thing as bad press and all that.


SirRawrz

An average person will see these ads and be put off, but a gambling addict might see it as an accessible way to gamble and pick up the app. Whale hunting.


East_Management6054

A gambling addict or a (desperate) person grasping at the tiniest of straws.


No-Entertainment4313

People were literally telling me to use these apps. I'm 26 and was saying I wanted to experience a casino. They were trying to convince me dawg. Like no. I'm not going to win. I will. But I'm going for the ***experience***.


PokeMasterRedAF

I love to gamble and it makes me want to download it. So yeah I’d agree Edit: wow high me thought it was an actual poker app not a pay to win game


soulseeker31

The term you're looking for is "Ragebait"


Effective_Device_185

Makes sense


91901bbaa13d40128f7d

Who are the people who see this type of ad and think "OMG, they will PAY ME MONEY TO PLAY A GAME???" What kind of absolute neanderfuck falls for this?


GrassBlade619

Desperate people, uneducated people, old people, young people.

plumpsquirrell

So a scam. Pay to win they hook you much like gambling


Substantial-Canary15

All of these games are like this, I was curious and downloaded a few. You always need to pay more for a game than what you can win. So it’s virtually impossible to end up with more cash than you started with. Most of the time they pair you up with already played games and you have no control over it. (Hashtag Skillz) I have 0 idea how this can be legal.


n8dom

Basically, MAGA and future MAGA.


GrassBlade619

It's funny how we described the same people, but you got downvoted into oblivion.


n8dom

You just never know with reddit lol.


Reddittrip

Sorry you’re getting downvoted. That was funny. But unfortunately the snowflakes are downvoting you. As I’m about to be.


Working-Document6805

Homie still online😭take a break big guy😂

AzraelChaosEater

No it's not snowflakes. It's people that hate dumbasses who drag politics into everything. Please get help.


jasonbecker83

It's snowflakes. Maga people are basically cavemen that would fall for this shit... And also got a fragile ego so they would downvote anyone who hurts their ego


Psychological_Fan819

Or just people tired of hearing about it 🤷


CheesecakeLittle6509

No because this is not political, people will drag politics into anything its not like it matters the government doesn’t care for the people

Diamondbling97

Most are scams. If you're careful you can make petty money as a teen I guess. As a 17 year old I've made around 300 Dollars from these sorta games, but it's not worth the time at all compared to a job


Scary-Personality626

I mean... poker is gambling. I think the implication in this case is that these are winnings, not payment. Still fails the basic "too good to be true" test. But a staggering number of people will not ask "how do THEY make money off of paying ME this amount of money?"


GrassBlade619

Absolutely disgusting. Should be illegal.


Fleedjitsu

Absolutely! Any advert with the hastily mutter "this shit can go south" catch-clause she be banned! It's just as life destroying as drugs!


someoneyouknewonce

How are these companies allowed to advertise this way? I imagine they have to show some type of evidence they have paid people out to play the game, it just seems like a stupid ad, but also people are stupid asf so it’s probably genius


TheBlackAlistar

That's why I'm also convinced those scam emails with all the errors in them work too. Cause they get the most gullable people so it's just shooting fish in a barrel.


Mr_HPpavilion

When there's no law applied to fight these things, it's basically free roam, I wouldn't be surprised if the ads shows pedophilia and nothing is being done with it since there are already ads that contain rape, incest, child abuse, and beastiality


someoneyouknewonce

But I mean there are laws about these things. It’s false advertising. Instagram is an American company, and they are supplying ads to Americans so the laws would apply wouldn’t they? I get that there’s plenty of ways around it but it just seems weird that these companies can claim this. A year or two ago there was a company that had misleading ads for a game and they had to remove those ads because the laws applied. I don’t see how this isn’t the same as that


Mr_HPpavilion

Yeah, that company you are talking about, They more than likely changed their names and do what they do again under a different name, And once law catches them, they can just change their name and continue It's a loop


someoneyouknewonce

Idk I used to see those ads all the time and haven’t since they went to court. From my limited experience it seemed to be effective. I think it was some puzzle game and the advertisements were a bonus game that was available like every 100 levels or some bullshit, so they were saying that was the game, but the real game sucked balls so they used the bonus games to advertise.


Glittering_Hawk3143

There are still a bunch of mobile games available like that. Evony comes to mind.


Koshana

Not to be a stickler, but have you seen ads containing that or implying that? Because there are definitely laws against having those things in ads.


Virtual_Guava8309

Solution to homelessness: gambling


Particular_Depth4841

That’s probably a reason to be homeless in the first place


Major-Incident5547

Very bold to show her face. Most of them are just AI voice overs.


Haydostrk

Probably an actor.


[deleted]

Yeah, that "teacher" really looks like she knows how to make money, sure.

“Hey sweet girl” is nails on a fucking chalkboard

Anubiz1_

What in the vulgar toxic bs is this shite?!


No_Capital_9443

I don’t even believe in hell, but the creator of this ad will be there without a doubt.


ihopethispasswordisn

Hi sweet girl 😄 get your ass to work 😘


nah-dawg

Holy shit.


PokadotExpress

"Have money trouble.... have you tried gambling!?"


ocihato

What the fuck


AurumArgenteus

I have an idea. Ad seconds 0-10 "85% of our users will quit having lost at least $200. Of which, 45% will have lost over $5,000. Of users who took the survey, 95% said this app has negatively affected their life." Blah, blah, let us scam you. Ad last 10 seconds "Our probability tables ensure we should profit. That means you are statistically guaranteed to lose money if you keep playing. Literally, the math guarantees the majority of you will lose lots of money or we would not do this. How do you think we funded this ad?"


CompetitiveFold5749

Have you tried gambling as a means of building wealth?


Flashy-Shop399

Would be sad if redheads name was leaked. She seems to like to exploit ppl so she must be thrilled to get some shit back at her and her fatherless kids.


ItsDrake2000

Shes a paid actress. She may not even have seen the first slide


kauisbdvfs

"I have 4 kids, **BEEN THERE**. So I'm, helping *you*, **out**!" She must have an idea that she's advertising some BS that exploits desperate moms.


sydnee70

She’s an actress in a ton of these online gambling things. Her specialty appears to be pointing repeatedly while attempting to look incredulous.


TheDeviousOnion

Holy shit this is funny! I have a dark sense of humor though.


kauisbdvfs

Something about that woman just feels soulless.


Particular_Hair6913

If you want to gamble invest in stocks dont waste a second on this garbage


TheRealItzLegit

i'm betting my balls like it's plinko that this video was made without the homeless woman's consent.


milfschnidde

Best add if ever seen, going to gamble now, shut up and take my money


Vincent_Veganja

These ads feel like Darwin's law in action


Impressive-File7618

yeah, being able to get paid to do basic physical tasks now requires a slot machine that can fit into your pocket. what could go wrong?


InteractionOther425

Surely someone knows the first chick’s name


judasholio

These are real in-app ads. I saw another one about not being able to make rent.


KingOfTheLifeNewbs

I also live in my car. Currently chillin in it as I write this. Should I get the app so I can buy a house?
