I got an ad once for a group selling stolen credit card numbers too. I must have reported it at least a dozen times but it was always kept up and the report said it didn't break any rules. It only got removed after I just skipped Facebook reports and reported to the police.
In my experience several years ago, Facebook was actually super fast to take down bad groups. I must've been reporting so many and with such reliability that they started coming down instantaneously after reporting them.
