Facebook Click Fraud Angers Web Advertisers
Companies and advertisers on the popular social networking site Facebook have been shocked to find that ads they placed on Facebook have generated many hits that did not correspond to visits to their site. Recently, Facebook advertisers were quoted as having as much as 10 times the amount of clicks by Facebook's metrics than by other click tracking software. These faked clicks result in much higher advertising bills for an advertising company, which has caused many advertisers to question Facebook's security precautions.
Click fraud occurs when an individual, group or entity registers a large number of illegitimate hits to a pay-per-click ad to ramp up competitors’ advertisement costs or to increase their advertisement revenue. In many cases, the fake clicks are generated by a script or bot that requires no human intervention to run and exists only to incur greater fees on advertisers.
