Per the *[*Media Rating Council (MRC)*](https://mediaratingcouncil.org/sites/default/files/Standards/IVT%20Addendum%20Update%20062520.pdf)*, “‘Invalid Traffic’ is defined generally as traffic that does not meet certain ad serving quality or completeness criteria, or otherwise does not represent legitimate ad traffic that should be included in measurement counts. Among the reasons why ad traffic may be deemed invalid is it is a result of non-human traffic (spiders, bots, etc.), or activity designed to produce fraudulent traffic.” Certain IVT is also sometimes referred to as “ad fraud.” Per the *[*MRC*](https://mediaratingcouncil.org/sites/default/files/Standards/081815%20Viewable%20Ad%20Impression%20Guideline_v2.0_Final.pdf)*, “'Fraud' is not intended to represent fraud as defined in various laws, statutes and ordinances or as conventionally used in U.S. Court or other legal proceedings, but rather a custom definition strictly for advertising measurement purposes.”* ### Search Blog Search ### Follow Pixalate ### Subscribe to our blog *By entering your email address and clicking Subscribe, you are agreeing to our [Terms of Use ](https://www.pixalate.com/terms)and [Privacy Policy.](https://www.pixalate.com/privacypolicy) Previous Story [← Pixalate Week in Review: June 5 - 9, 2023](https://www.pixalate.com/blog/june-9-2023-weekly-recap) [** ](https://www.pixalate.com/blog) Next Story [Mobile App Manual Review under COPPA Rule: ‘My Brother ate my pudding' →](https://www.pixalate.com/blog/app-review-series-my-brother-ate-my-pudding) ## You May Also Like These Stories on Ad Fraud [![](https://www.pixalate.com/hubfs/vMVPD%20Apps%20Traffic%20Analysis%20Report%20blog%20cover.png) ](https://www.pixalate.com/blog/pixalate-releases-global-top-20-most-popular-ctv-virtual-multichannel-video-programming-distribution-vmvpd-apps-reports-for-q1-2026) [Ad Fraud](https://www.pixalate.com/blog/topic/ad-fraud) ### [Global Top 20 Most Popular CTV Virtual Multichannel Video Programming Distribution (vMVPD) Apps Reports for Q1 2026: ‘Hulu’ No. 1 on Apple TV, ‘Tubi’ Leads on Roku, ‘Pluto TV’ leads on Amazon Fire TV](https://www.pixalate.com/blog/pixalate-releases-global-top-20-most-popular-ctv-virtual-multichannel-video-programming-distribution-vmvpd-apps-reports-for-q1-2026) Jun 10, 2026 9:00:00 AM | 3 min read [![](https://www.pixalate.com/hubfs/Blog%20Media/2026%20Covers%20and%20Images/MONTHLY%20MOST%20COMMON%20MOBILE%20AD%20FRAUD%20TYPES%20GOOGLE%20-%20APPLE%20BLOG%20COVER.png) ](https://www.pixalate.com/blog/pixalates-may-2026-most-common-mobile-app-ad-fraud-types) [Ad Fraud](https://www.pixalate.com/blog/topic/ad-fraud) ### [Pixalate Releases May 2026 Most Common Mobile App Ad Fraud Types: ‘High Risk Device ID’ Most Common Type Across Google Play Store (32%);
