Link warning, this site a rather quite aggressive fishing scam. The Google Ad displays that the link will resolve to "www.nytimes.com", however it instead redirects to a [spam fishing site](https://lpeedxcddfgffdsxxxzzs.z13.web.core.windows.net/index...).
Good question. The ad looks like an innocuous link to www.nytimes.com, but clicking on the link actually goes to https://www.googleadservices.com/pagead/aclk. (I didn't try actually clicking the link.)

My primary question is how is this possible?
