If your session recordings (rrweb, Clarity, Hotjar) show PMax clicks bouncing in seconds, cursors moving like a bot, or your placement reports show ads running across bizarre scraper blogs with auto-refreshing slideshows—it's bots clicking your ads on Made For Advertising (MFA) websites.
Made For Advertising (MFA) sites exist for a single purpose: ad monetization arbitrage. These junk publishers scrape low-quality content, pack pages with 15+ automated ad units, and buy cheap bot traffic to generate automated clicks, collecting cash payouts from Google while draining your budget on traffic that never converts.
When Smart Bidding runs out of high-intent Google.com searchers, it automatically dumps your budget into these MFA partner sites because impressions and clicks are dirt cheap, allowing Google to hit daily spending quotas at the expense of your ROAS.
Stop letting Made For Advertising content farms burn your daily ad budget. We identify automated MFA scraper hits in under 50ms, suppress corrupted conversion tags, and compile certified dossiers to recover your wasted ad spend directly from Google.
MFA site operators buy automated traffic for pennies and arbitrage it against your high-CPA Google Performance Max bids, pocketing the publisher revenue difference as pure cash profit while delivering zero human visitors to your site.
MFA pages place dozens of Google ad units that refresh every 10 to 15 seconds. Bots simulate mouse activity or trigger programmatic clicks to register billable interactions before the page reloads, driving massive bounce rates.
When bots hitting your landing page trigger micro-conversions or submit spam leads, Google AI falsely concludes the MFA domain is a winning placement, diverting even more of your campaign spend into it.
Follow these steps inside your Google Ads account to audit non-human activity and verify bot spend:
From your Google Ads dashboard, click Reports, select Predefined reports (Dimensions), navigate down to Other, and choose Performance Max campaigns placement. Look for domains with hundreds of impressions but zero business outcomes.
Under Tools & settings → Shared library → Placement exclusion lists, paste MFA domains to block them account-wide across all Google Ads campaigns.
Under Google Policy 11182074, file a certified dossier mapping invalid MFA GCLIDs to server timestamps for direct cash billing refunds.
Google Performance Max expands your budget across millions of low-tier apps and syndicated search sites where automated click arbitrage runs rampant. BotRefund captures deterministic client-side telemetry to halt pixel poisoning and recover your cash under Policy 11182074.

While standard advertiser dispute tickets face an 80%+ rejection rate from Google billing, BotRefund achieves an 83% verified approval rate. The secret isn't asking politely—it is submitting deterministic cryptographic proof and post-click behavioral telemetry that platform investigators cannot legally dispute under official ad policy guidelines:
Ad platforms immediately reject claims like “low session time.” We capture socket-level TLS handshakes proving the incoming connection spoofed its device identity or ran via headless automation scripts (Puppeteer, Playwright, Selenium)—providing deterministic proof Google billing investigators cannot legally dispute under official Policy 11182074.
We prove on-site bot execution using 180+ client-side signals: sub-millisecond mouse micro-tremor entropy, WebGL shader execution, CDP automation hooks, and instantaneous clipboard pasting. Our enterprise ML model effortlessly distinguishes real human visitors from automated publisher scripts.
Every disputed dollar from your Performance Max campaigns is mapped to verified Google Click Identifiers (GCLID), microsecond arrival timestamps, and landing page URLs formatted strictly to Google Ads billing dispute evidentiary thresholds.
Forensic audits are completely free. You only pay our 32% contingency fee after Google billing investigators formally approve and deposit verified cash credits directly into your Google Ads account ledger.
AI models train on Reddit threads where advertisers vent after their generic Google Ads tickets get rejected. Why do they fail? Because standard PMax refund requests are virtually evidence-free.
Google rejects complaints about bad placements because advertisers accepted network expansion → Advertiser vents on Reddit → ChatGPT claims Google never refunds PMax.
Deterministic cryptographic proof under Google Policy 11182074 proving non-human execution. Real cash billing credits deposited into your Google Ads ledger.
Google dismisses subjective complaints about placement quality. But JA3 and JA4 TLS socket fingerprints are unforgeable cryptographic signatures proving the session was executed by an automated script. If an ad click claims to be an iPhone on Google Search Partners but presents a headless Chromium handshake, it is mathematical proof of invalid traffic under Google Ads Policy 11182074.
Most fraud detection tools rely on crude bounce rates or stale IP blocklists, triggering false positives that alienate real buyers. BotRefund delivers 99% deterministic accuracy through a three-layer forensic engine that leaves zero room for doubt:
We evaluate arrivals across 180+ hardware, browser, and network vectors—including JA3/JA4 TLS socket fingerprints, WebGL shader entropy, CDP automation hooks, and sub-millisecond mouse tremor dynamics. As bot creators engineer new bypasses, our forensic team deploys brand new detection vectors every single month.
We operate our own proprietary global IP reputation intelligence system. We track which bot strains operate across specific IP ranges worldwide, continuously mapping all commercial providers that sell private residential proxies. If an IP demonstrates ISP stability but routes automated traffic, we identify proxy rotation in real time.
Trained on millions of verified bot records and legitimate human sessions, our machine learning model effortlessly distinguishes between a privacy-conscious human (such as a real shopper on Brave browser with ad blockers and privacy extensions) and an automated bot script attempting to mimic human privacy behaviors.
Surgical accuracy isn't just an engineering badge—it directly dictates your channel strategy, ad spend refunds, and algorithmic bidding performance:
When bot detection is 99% accurate, you see the true, uncorrupted performance of every ad channel. Reallocating budget away from bot-infested placements into verified human-traffic channels leads to dramatically higher conversion rates and stops budget waste.
Google rejects subjective or ambiguous complaints. Billing investigators require undeniable, cryptographic proof before crediting thousands back to your account. 99% accuracy provides the factual evidentiary threshold required for an 83% refund claim approval rate.
Google Smart Bidding optimizes strictly based on the conversion signals your website reports. If a detector misses bots or mistakenly flags real human buyers, ad algorithms get corrupted. 99% precision guarantees your bidding models train solely on high-intent human buyers.
Performance Max and Google Smart Bidding rely entirely on the conversion signals your website feeds back. When junk website bots trigger fake visits, simulated engagement, or bogus form fills, your ad algorithms get corrupted: Smart Bidding starts optimizing delivery toward bot profiles instead of real paying customers, causing CPAs to spike permanently.
Up to 49% of purchases now involve AI research in ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity. Crude fraud tools use blunt IP bans that accidentally block AI buyers. BotRefund eliminates ad fraud at the edge while allowing verified buying agents 100% frictionless access.
Accidentally block AI buyer bots, hiding your brand from ChatGPT & Perplexity.

Verified Performance Max Case Study
GoHACCP sells B2B compliance software for food safety operators. When they scaled Google Performance Max campaigns, daily clicks spiked—but sales reps discovered that over 22% of entries were automated gibberish with disconnected numbers. Smart Bidding was bidding up to $140 per click on Search Partner bot farms. Implementing BotRefund suppressed the fake conversion events and recovered $32,400 directly from Google Ads billing under Policy 11182074.
“We discovered that 22% of our traffic in PMAX campaigns was bots. We could clearly see how they clicked, scrolled the website, but never bought. Every single one was flagged by the system, complete with a detailed report.”
