Doesn't feel like it. So this buyer wants me to copy an app's advertisement verbatim and shot by shot and send it to him. feels like copyright infringement or something. is this legal?

It really does not feel legal. I am not law nerd but I suggest you to tell the buyer you cannot provide such service.

A kind of workaround I am thinking about (NOT a suggestion or incouragement to do so) is making your customer sign a sheet where he states he will not use the content outside of private use, but I am afraid the fact that you are being paid to create this copyrighted material is itself a law infringement you cannot avoid.

I agree, homie. They even want me to say the original app's name...
