Looks like Google’s AdWords moderation team is rather inept.
I think what they do is have a real safe site, then when it gets approved, change the content of their site with all of the alerts and scam items.
It’s a pretty old practice, I had a friend fall victim to it once trying to download Winrar.

I just visited their site and it’s just some random site, doesn’t offer to download ThunderBird. Looks like it’s a simple clickbait ad.
