Earlier this month, Reuters reported internal documents from late 2024 stated Meta expected to earn about 10% of its revenue that year, about $16 billion, from illicit advertising. One document noted Meta earns $3.5 billion in revenue from "higher risk" scam ads every six months. Other documents stated that Meta's anti-fraud rules didn't appear to apply to many ads that regulators and the company's own staff believed "violated the spirit" of its rules against scam advertising.
