Abstract
The present teaching relates to a fraud detecting system and method for providing protection against fraudulent advertisement requests. Upon receiving a request for an advertisement, the system extracts an identifier, associated with a source from which the request originates, included in the request. The system determines whether the extracted identifier is included in a list of designated identifiers, and when the identifier is included in the list, the system denies the request for the advertisement. When the identifier is not included in the list of designated identifiers, the system provides the advertisement in response to the request, and extracts a set of features from the request and other requests that originate from the source to determine whether the identifier associated with the source is to be included in the list of designated identifiers based on the set of features in accordance with one or more models.
