Allows fake virus scam ads

I used to love this app and played it all the time but then it started serving up fake virus scam ads so I have had to delete the app. I got the scam ads several times.

Game

Love game, hate how partner passes cards. Keeps trump to save meld, doesn't pass correctly. Partner bids needing a lot, but passes with a full. Partner doesn’t smear when should
