Our study aims at identifying potential security risks of a type mobile where advertisers are charged for their advertisements only when user clicks (or touches) on the in applications. In Android platform, we design an automated click generation attack empirically evaluate eight popular advertising networks by performing real attacks them. experimental results show that six (75%) out (Millennial Media, App Lovin, Ad Fit, Mdot M, Rev Mob Cauly Ads) vulnerable our attacks. We also discuss how develop effective defense mechanisms mitigate such fraud
