Nobody creates BAMfakes for fun. There is serious money at stake. There are three primary motivations:
Emerging platforms are experimenting with decentralized ledger technology for click attribution. Each click, impression, and conversion is timestamped and cryptographically signed. To create a BAMfake, a fraudster would need to hack 51% of the network—computationally impossible at scale.
