Index Exchange, PubMatic, Sovrn, Verizon Media, Improve Digital, The Trade Desk, Amazon.com, Adobe, Outbrain, Sephora were all victims. The KAI pre-bid ad-fraud prevention tool helps stop fraud before it happens through pattern recognition and device scoring. The algorithm is trained to analyze the behavior, consistency, and quality to determine its credibility - accurately flagging fraud in less than 10ms of an ad bid, faster than any other tool on the market. In its work with its partners, the KAI team found the Weasel Injection structure and tested it independently. Ultimately, they determined it utilized PreBid.js header bidding but masked/spoofed the true identity of the properties it was selling while also being compliant with both ads.txt and sellers.json protocols. This was accomplished using a bait and switch advert (Malvertising) that when activated would facilitate the Fraudulent Reselling Scheme.
