SCAM or not. Google ad express pay per phrase

    Seen a sponsored ad on facebook for "duplex ai" powered by google. clicked on it to see what it was.
    For those of you familiar with google ads you bid for words and pay as per your budget.

    Now what this site was offering was "pay per phrase". $99 a month per phrase no matter how many clicks. The interaction with the facebook bot was very slick, all questions answered. They reviewed my website and came back with relevant phrases for the business

    ok, might give it a go as was thinking about running an ad campaign for something.

    So way it works is you buy a reference code from this site.
    https://google.referencecodes.com/secure-my-phrases/

    You then get in contact with a support engineer who books your phrase.

    Something wasnt sitting right with me, I asked too many questions about terms and conditions and contact phone numbers so the chat ended.

    Rang google ads, they came back with something vague "yeah that doesnt look right".

    https://google.referencecodes.com/

    I cant find anything on it anywhere so putting it here as warning.. discuss.
