Unfortunate AdWords

El Cogote discovered Amazon, eBay, and others running silly ads on Google for many terms.

For example, a search for "misfortune" brought up an eBay affiliate ad that said, "Find it on eBay! Misfortune and much more."

It's easy to play this game with other terms. I just did a search for "fraudulent" and got an eBay affiliate ad saying:

Fraudulent
Low prices and huge selection!
www.ebay.com

Beautiful.
