How are repeat clicks identified?
Ask whether detection relies on the IP address alone or also uses device, browser and behavior signals. Visitors on rotating connections are where that difference shows.
Fraud Blocker vs AdProtektor
A Fraud Blocker alternative for search and social campaigns.
Protect Google Ads search campaigns and Meta campaigns from the same dashboard. Set click rules, let eligible exclusions sync automatically and open the visitor record whenever a decision needs checking.
Fraud Blocker positions its product around click-fraud detection and blocking for search advertisers. If search is your only channel, compare how each tool detects repeat clicks and keeps your Google Ads exclusions up to date. If you also advertise on Meta, add that channel to the comparison: AdProtektor maintains a separate Meta exclusion audience alongside Google Ads IP exclusions.
Buyer's guide
What to look for in a click-fraud tool
The category looks crowded — but most tools differ on a handful of dimensions. Evaluate any vendor on these before deciding.
How are Google Ads exclusions kept current?
Check whether exclusions are submitted automatically, at which account or campaign scope, and whether you can see a log of what was sent and when.
What about channels beyond search?
If any of your budget goes to Meta or other platforms, ask how protection reaches those campaigns and how long changes take to apply there.
Can you tune sensitivity per account?
Look for click-frequency limits, time windows and thresholds you can adjust yourself, plus a quick way to whitelist a customer who was flagged in error.
Why AdProtektor
Where AdProtektor is built differently
Your rules. Automatic protection.
Set Google Ads click-frequency limits and time windows, adjust protection settings, and let the system evaluate incoming traffic. You do not need to approve each visitor.
More context than an IP address
Device, browser, network and behavioral evidence help link related visits with confidence scores. This can reveal repeat activity across changing connections when the available evidence supports a match.
AI with clear controls
On eligible plans, enable AI person analysis and choose separately whether its findings can influence click or website blocking. Analysis can remain informative without becoming an enforcement decision.
Connected Google Ads and Meta protection
Eligible Google Ads IP exclusions are submitted automatically. Meta uses a separately maintained exclusion audience; account setup, audience matching and platform processing affect when it takes effect.
Evidence when you need it
Inspect classifications, activity history, exclusion records and available session replays. Adjust rules, remove a block or whitelist a legitimate source from the dashboard.
Conversion tracking alongside protection
ConversionOS adds server-side conversion collection, delivery reporting and fraud-aware event handling. Its destinations and filtering depend on your integration, settings and plan.
Where it runs
Install the website script, connect the relevant ad accounts and configure protection. Google Ads uses eligible IP exclusions at the supported account or campaign scope. Meta uses Custom Audience exclusions with scheduled membership synchronization. Connections must be active, and each platform applies its own processing and enforcement rules.

FAQ
Common questions
Why consider AdProtektor as a Fraud Blocker alternative?
Consider AdProtektor if you want Google Ads search protection and Meta protection under one set of rules and one dashboard. Check how both tools handle your campaign types and the volume of clicks you buy each month.
How does Google Ads connect?
Through an MCC connection: you enter your Customer ID and accept one invitation. There are no OAuth tokens to expire.
Which Google Ads campaigns do the IP exclusions reach?
Eligible IP exclusions are submitted automatically at the account or campaign scope your connection supports. Google decides which campaign types accept IP exclusions, so review your campaign mix during setup.
Does Google refund the click that triggered a block?
No. The click that triggered detection is still charged. Protection reduces repeat clicks from the same source, and the refund report helps you prepare evidence for an invalid-traffic claim, which Google decides.
What is Paranoia Mode?
An optional, stricter setting that blocks a visitor from their second ad click within a time window. Use it when a campaign attracts persistent repeat clicking and you accept a stricter policy.
