  • Medical Malpractice Claims$75 – $200 per click

When each click costs this much, even small amounts of click fraud can waste significant marketing budgets.

Why Claims Company Ads Are a Target for Click Fraud

The claims management industry is one of the most competitive and expensive verticals in Google Ads. Whether you handle personal injury, medical negligence, housing disrepair, or financial mis-selling claims, the cost per click can be extremely high.

High-value claims mean high-value leads — and high CPCs. This combination makes claims companies a prime target for click fraud from competitors, bots, and fraud networks looking to exploit expensive ad markets.

01

Extremely High CPCs

Claims keywords regularly exceed $50–$150 per click, making every fake click an expensive loss.

02

Fierce Competition

Dozens of claims firms compete for the same leads. Rival companies may click your ads to exhaust your budget and win the client.

03

Bot Networks

Automated bots specifically target high-CPC legal and claims verticals where each fraudulent click generates maximum revenue.

04

High Lead Values

A single successful claim can be worth thousands, making these leads highly sought after — and highly targeted by fraudsters.

Tick any you’ve noticed

High click volumes but very few form submissions or phone enquiries

Sudden spikes in traffic at unusual hours — evenings, weekends, or overnight

Many visits lasting only a few seconds with no engagement

Repeated clicks from the same locations or IP addresses

Budget depleting much faster than expected without increased conversions

Most claims companies don't have time to manually cross-reference IP addresses and click patterns while managing active cases.

How Fake Clicks Hurt Claims Advertising

Fake clicks can severely damage claims company advertising campaigns, from draining budgets to losing high-value cases.

Wasted Ad Budget

Every fraudulent click drains your daily advertising budget without generating real claimants. With CPCs often exceeding $50, fake clicks can waste thousands of dollars per month.

Competitor Sabotage

In the fiercely competitive claims market, rival firms may repeatedly click your ads to exhaust your budget. Once your daily budget is spent, your ads stop showing — and their ads take your place.

Bot Traffic

Automated bots and fraud networks specifically target high-CPC verticals like claims management. These non-human visitors consume your budget without any chance of converting into a genuine case.

Lost Cases

When fake clicks drain your daily budget, your ads stop appearing. Genuine claimants searching for help never see your ads. They go to your competitors instead, and you lose high-value cases.
