These ads are actually misleading and sometimes take you to a direct download that most of the time downloads automatically without you actually clicking anything.
Some of these files are RAT's or ransom-ware.
Ransom-ware is when the application is installed on your computer, on boot a nice little message pops up saying that you need to pay a fine to their site. They say they are from a police-related business and that you have been caught downloading things that I can't ever mention on ROBLOX since... well yeah. It's not appropriate in any way shape or form.
I also feel bad for the kids who actually got into trouble from their parents for having this pop up on their computer. And of course... the people who actually paid them.
I didn't really explain what the ads say much so I will try to explain: It can say multiple things such as ROBLOX is having a live stream with Bereghost or another known person. Basically anything that would tempt you to click on it. Some of these ads are identical to the banners you see when ROBLOX is actually live streaming. |

I'm sure after 6 months they are aware of this by now.
