For advertisers, publishers, and platforms navigating this digital battleground, the need for a real-time, robust fraud prevention solution has never been more critical.

What Is Ad Fraud?
Ad fraud is any intentional deception that manipulates advertising systems to generate revenue from fake clicks, impressions, or conversions. From bot networks and spoofed domains to click farms and pixel stuffing, the tactics are increasingly sophisticated.
Types of Ad Fraud to Watch in 2025
- Click Fraud: Bots or humans repeatedly clicking on ads to inflate metrics.
- Lead Gen Fraud: Submission of fake lead data to steal ad spend.
- Impression Fraud: Hidden or stacked ads that never reach human eyes.
- Domain Spoofing: Fraudsters impersonate premium websites to mislead advertisers.
- CTV and Mobile Ad Fraud: Fake app installs, SDK spoofing, and device emulation continue to rise.
The Real Cost of Fraud
A fake lead doesn’t just cost you the CPL. It misguides your retargeting, pollutes your CRM, and wastes your sales team’s time. Worse, it can lead to mistrust in your data and ad tech stack.
