Google Ads Fraud Landscape

What Google Doesn’t Tell You About Your Clicks

5–22%

of Google Ads clicks are fraudulent

Google’s “invalid click” filter catches obvious bots, but sophisticated fraud — residential proxies, device emulation, click farms — slips through.

$84B

lost to ad fraud globally in 2024

Google Ads is the largest digital ad platform — and the #1 target for click fraud, competitor clicking, and bot traffic.

0%

transparency from Google on filtered clicks

You can’t see which clicks Google filtered or why. You’re trusting a platform that charges per click to tell you which clicks were fake.

The hidden cost: On €10,000/month Google Ads spend, €500–2,200 is going to bots, competitors, and click farms — budget that should be reaching real customers.
