For some reason fake MyEtherWallet sites are able to advertise on Google
and thus are able to steal your private keys,

Please bookmark true MEW site into your browser or use extension MEW on Chrome. It's save. Don't login your wallet on any strange-site, they will steal your key + UTC file + Password = your wallet = your tokens/coins.

Scammers are really working hard to steal money as much as they can.

The best way to stay safe is to bookmark myetherwallet address or even better to use chrome extension "EtherAddressLockup".

Mostly they are indeed phishing scams. At least myetherwallet always shows that warning popup that its not a bank, always check the http address, etc...

I am just wondering why google doesn't notice these bad adverts...

Because google didn't know too if this is a scam site, regarding to the imtoken wallet app I didn't trust that app since there are a lot of issues regarding to missing some tokens in their wallet.
