Coalition Against Ad Fraud
CAAF is an Adjust-initiated working group of industry leaders, who have pledged to tackle mobile ad fraud head-on. CAAF members collaborate to develop modern solutions that benefit all stakeholders affected by fraudulent traffic, with the goal of eliminating mobile ad fraud by creating standards and methodologies to fight it, and educating the industry as a whole.
What's the aim?
CAAF aims to educate the industry about the problems of ad fraud and create alignment around the types of measures that are needed to fight it.
CAAF’s Guide to Fraud
CAAF has also produced a document providing advertisers, supply-side networks, third-party vendors and other industry participants with a technical overview of the current state of mobile performance ad fraud. In it, we’ll take you through the practical side of fraud, defining fraud schemeswhile detailing how they work.
