Abstract
Pay-per-click (PPC) advertising is being seriously threatened by the click fraud (CF). In this paper, we report a game-theoretic analysis of the incentives and consequences of CF involving Web content publishers. We find that the publisher competition induces CF, harming the efficiency especially the publisher payoff allocation in the market.
