Pay-Per-Click Fraud

The repetitive clicking on ads on a website in order to generate revenue for the website. Websites which run advertisements on the pay-per-click model are paid an amount each time someone clicks on an advertisement, with pay-per-click fraud the website arranges for clicks to be made on those advertisements purely for the purposes of raising revenue for the website. This is a fraud because the advertisers receive no benefit but see their advertising budget fraudulently eaten away.
