Google makes millions from plight of addicts

Addicts for Sale –
Jan. 7, 2018 – An undercover investigation by The Sunday Times has found that the internet giant charged the middlemen as much as £200 each time someone accesses their website with a single click on the advertised link at the top of a Google search page. The brokers, known as referral agents, advertise themselves as free advice helplines but are able to afford the exorbitant Google rates because they can receive as much as £20,000 a month commission by referring only one caller to private rehabilitation clinics … One agency uses 300 websites to lure thousands of addiction sufferers to its call lines.
