Hi,
Watch out if you are running PPC on Facebook! They’ve been complaining about PPC click fraud of up to 100% for weeks, and the situation doesn’t seem to be getting any better. Facebook Click FRAUD Enraging Advertisers Good Luck. |

One thing I hate about PPC in Facebook is that when I am in certain apps I need to click, hold and drag outside the app in order to move stuff around in the app and when I let go of the click, it's over an ad that is outside the app and it acts as if I did an actual click on it when I really did was release a click that I started within the app. Facebook is the only site I've seen that happen and think they do it on purpose as many people do what I do. They disregard where the actual pointer is but rely on the pointer or object in the app which h ave distinc placements on the page itself. Kind of shady tactics from Facebook to increase clicks imo and should be considered fraud but fraud on behalf of facebook. ANyway, I'm done with my rant :P

Wow.. I can't believe this thread isn't getting any attention. This is a big deal people. Well, for those who have advertised with Facebook, that is.

It was bad enough when my competition would click on my fb ads to see my landers, now there's so many automated tools and BlueFart budget busters I don't think fb will ever get on top of it. The adboard needs to go away, or at the very least adboard clicks shouldn't be charged.
On the plus side: the click fraud makes fb CPM campaigns more lucrative. Think about it
