Spamvertisement 

Spam emails, privet messages, notes, comments that people recive on/in their accounts.
"I got one today. Some kind of spamvertisement asking me to go some site"

scabvertisement 

Website ads featuring nasty skin conditions. The ads are usually — but not always — on medical information sites like WebMD. This is not in any way to cast in a bad light the people who have the conditions, because anyone is susceptible to viral, fungal, and bacterial infections, as well as cancer. But most people, including those with the condition, would agree that it's kind of hard to look at.

A dead drop is a location used to secretly pass items between two people, without requiring them to meet.

Spies have been known to use dead drops, using various techniques to hide the items and to signal that the drop has been made. Drug dealers use this as well.

A common place is to duct tape the item to the underside of a toilet cover in a public restroom.

A signal is sometimes used as well to indicate there is something to pickup, like a pile of stones in a certain formation. After checking the drop the signal is removed.
"The dead drop is the restroom toilet at the Gulf station at the corner of Commercial Ave. and Georges Rd."
