Hey guys holy shit the sky is falling

6a00d8354f1fb569e20120a763854b970b-pi
 
I've had my ads paused for a couple days now and I'm still getting tons of clicks from these ip's:

62.48.77.56
62.48.77.57
62.48.77.58
213.229.83.205
72.251.217.194

Someone has really been scraping away .... click fraud going to kill pof :(
 
Ben&Markus,
Those image reports are great! If there is some better way to organize it all other than a "since" date, it would be much more organized. Or at least a "from"-"to" kind of setting.

Also, I have to agree...I like the ability to see old canceled campaigns. But there has to be a way to just delete all of it in away that you aren't normally bothered by it (and maybe click a link--instead of that drag down, which is buggy) for when you want to see it.

way more ways to make money then blowing it on some bogus mobile traffic / ramped up bids for nothing
 
It doesn't matter where your targeting, all that matter is where the users has set as his home town. For example, a person from Germany can set his home town to New York and he'll see ads targeted to New York ... The reason I posted those ip's was to to prove that people are scrapping the site, causing impression/click fraud. Basically, your paying for bot traffic.
Now, only the stupid ones are using the same ip to scrape from ... I'm sure that there are a lot more people running there scraper through multiple proxy lists and you'd never be able to detect that through your stats.

Well in that case dude if you are moaning about the odd click from some guy clicking on yoru ads you're in the wrong game. GTFO and stop whinging. Every PPC platform out there has clik fraud going down on it.

Good luck with keeping people informed about this new phnomenon "click fraud".
