Malicious Ads Served on Bing Ads Impersonating MyCase

“We are both alarmed and disappointed that a malicious actor was impersonating MyCase online. It has been reported that an unrelated, third party experienced a security breach leading to the creation of malicious ads, driving traffic to a fake site, and allegedly installing malware on consumer devices through impersonated, independent ads. These ads were reportedly served on the Microsoft Advertising Platform. The ads did not originate from our Bing advertising accounts, including Bing Chat, and none of our systems have been compromised in any way.

The security and privacy of our customers is of paramount importance, and we are taking this matter seriously. To avoid confusion for consumers we have paused all advertising on Bing.com, effective immediately, until we are satisfied that the malicious ads have been removed.”
