Creating an account allows you to remove ads on most pages (via user preferences). Otherwise, unfortunately the only path is via Special:Contact/bad-ad. You will receive replies via your email, so make sure your username and email is valid before submitting the request.

It is also best to provide all details you can - including links, screenshots and info about the device you're using. 1. I have high doubts that disabling ads through user preferences will remove these kinds of ads, as they are forceful redirects AWAY from the Fandom site itself, containing malware and other such malicious content, that is clearly not an intended form of advertising by the people who run Fandom.

2. I have never gotten any response from the bad ad contact page. Is it because I do not have an account? Why should that matter if I am providing a valid e-mail address, full details of the problem, images, descriptions, links and as much evidence as I can. This is the reason I contacted you, because I figured you would at least REPLY.

3. Is this really going to be yet ANOTHER website who is just going to ignore malicious ads because users have the ability to block them? Have you ever thought about brand new users? People who are discovering Fandom for the first time? If their first visit (as an unregistered user) to this site redirects them to a spam malware site, WHY would they come back? WHY would they bother to create an account so they can deal with it? These ads are attacking your unregistered guests in a very dangerous way. This is an issue that needs to be dealt with immediately.
