Do affiliates not report each others cloaked ads on facebook?

hi all,

Just wondering as I saw a facebook ad today about bitcoin. Do people not just report each others cloaked ads when they see them on Facebook? I asked a friend of mine whos been in AM for a couple of years and he said it was 'bad karma'. Is there some sort of code of silence amongst affiliate marketers?

I think this is 100% individual, not that all affiliates will act the same.

If you run BH on FB and you believe in karma, than yeah, maybe not do it.

But if you see a pure scam that's following/retargeting you like a crazy? I don't know..

Some do, some don't. It's often an impulse decision in stressful situations ... one guy told me he started to report such ads once facebook banned his own accounts for doing the same. Sort of a "if I can do it, you won't either" approach

Personally, I don't report anything, my time is better spent elsewhere

If you report successfully running ads, it’s probably a fair assumption that Facebook will show you less ads related to that topic.

Which affiliate would want to fewer BH ads? A dumb one.
