Bot blocker + hijack protection for Google Ads
2 followers
stopfakeclicks blocks bots and repeat clickers in Google Ads: 3 paid clicks within 48 hours, or automation signals, put a source's IP on your account's exclusion list, updated every hour. Account guard pauses campaigns you didn't create and budget jumps until you confirm them. We built it after our own account got two hijacked campaigns with £15,000 and £5,000 daily budgets. Buyers who add to cart are never blocked. WordPress, WooCommerce, GTM or any site. $9.99/month, 14 days free.

Hi Product Hunt 👋
In September, around midnight, two campaigns appeared in our own Google Ads account. We didn't make them. Daily budgets: £15,000 and £5,000.
Since then, the same happened to a friend whose account is run by an agency.
That gap is why stopfakeclicks exists. It does two jobs for Google Ads advertisers:
1. Fake clicks: our tag logs every paid click; automation, headless browsers and IPs that keep clicking without ever adding to cart get excluded inside Google Ads through one script you paste once. Anyone who added to cart or bought is never blocked, mobile networks are never blocked, and the first 7 days are watch-only.
2. Hijacks: every hour we check your campaigns. A campaign you didn't make, a budget that jumps, ads pointing to someone else's site: paused until you confirm it was you.
No login sharing, no API access, we never touch bids or budgets. One plan, $9.99/month, every feature, 14 days free.
What we can't do (honestly): we can't stop the very first click from a new IP, and Google caps IP exclusions at 500, so we keep the most recent offenders.
I'd love your feedback, especially from anyone running Search, Shopping or Performance Max.
