We're investigating reports that people being shown ads on Twitter that aren't marked as ads, something the FTC really isn't a fan of! So if you're still occasionally on the hellsite and happen to notice this, zing a couple screenshots our way: submit@checkmyads.org

An image showing how to report unmarked ads on Twitter, saying "send your screenshots to submit@checkmyads.org". One image shows that you screenshot the post itself and look out for posts missing the "ad" tag in the top right. The second image shows screenshotting the drop-down menu when you click the three dots next to the username so it shows "not interested in this ad."
