Response from Google [1]:<p>&quot;To close the loop, these are not Google ads and we do not condone this practice. We are working with the wireless carrier to understand why this happened and ensure it doesn&#x27;t happen again.<p>Glad Google Messages flagged it as unsafe&quot;<p>[1]: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;twitter.com&#x2F;mrisher&#x2F;status&#x2F;1410017611018952704" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;twitter.com&#x2F;mrisher&#x2F;status&#x2F;1410017611018952704</a>
