    There is a difference between ads network that are hitten sometimes by malvertising that redirect to EK or PUP and ads network that are a part of PUPs/Adwares business.

    Adsense is not running fake Java/Flash popup to push PUP every days.
    For me they are not victim, they take part in

    Same thing for Adcash, Revenuehits, Clicksor/Yesup, Popcash and others.

    Of course, there is a difference. And also there is a big difference between malware and adware.

    if look all,
    How adwares are bundle (pushing malvertising etc, fake flash/java message etc), sometimes you can close the installers
    How it's difficult to uninstall
    How they try to bypass AV detections.
    Not so much.

    You just find a new way to turn computer into cash slot machins hiding behind 'there is an EULA'.

    Btw you are running a iphone scam campaign : https://twitter.com/malekal_morte/status/586162004932591616
    EDIT : and another iphone scam campaign via go.safetrckr.com

    Hello David.Propeller, I really think PropellerAds should completely reset their advertisements and start from scratch. Your team should then accept advertisements with a more strict set of rules... I know this might be a lot of work but PropellerAds should really get a fix.. I have no problems with other ad networks. I really like your rates that's the only reason I'm trying my best to let you guys know what is wrong.

    Its mostly because people expect every network to be in competition with AdSense - and propeller is an example of a network which does not even focus on the same niche as AdSense. Propeller is for sites which are non-premium. So if you go to a network like Propeller with a premium site, and all of their advertisers are interested in mostly download sites etc (non premium sites) then of course you won't see the best rates. Why do you think the ads are problematic and low quality? Because they are not for premium sites by a long shot.

    For what propeller does and focuses on, they are great, and anyone who understand their niche and their focus, knows this.

    Simply put you do not go to a Toyota dealer expecting a Ferrari. So don't go to Propeller expecting Premium.

    Problematic ?
    There is problematic and problematic.

    Fake Java etc, that push Adwares, and turn computer into cash machines, we can say it's immoral etc etc.
    but in this case, we are talking about scam.
    => http://malvertising.stopmalwares.com/2015/04/iphone-scam-malvertising-campaign/

    Some people made complaints to the Police and others want to do action group <= maybe with this sentence Propellers will go to do something, uh ?

    I still got another of theses scam ads from ProppeleAds just right now.
    Yesterday, i receive finally a reply (if we can say that) :

    Popcash, Adcash, wwwpromoter and most of the others ads network remove it without any discussions.
    I dont understand how that's possible to do nothing.

    Are you kidding me? Doesn't every company strive to be "Premium"? And if you don't then you're probably a scam site..

    Pushing malware through ads is wrong for "Premium" or not premium networks..

    Laugh out loud. Is a warez site premium? is a torrent site premium? If propeller ads focuses on advertisers which generally buy from those kinds of sites, simply put Propeller ads would cater to a non-premium niche, because none of those kinds of sites are remotely premium. So you are absolutely incorrect. Your statement of being a scam if you are not striving to be premium also makes no sense.

    Absolutely pushing malware is wrong in any sense, however, what you clearly do not understand is that lower quality niche networks which focus on LQ sites are going to have lower quality ads, look at exoclick, another great example. To be honest for you, the reason the ads are low quality is because advertisers know that most viewers on the sources (sites) are not going to complain especially when they are downloading cracked software or an illegal copy of a movie.

    If you take a site that is Premium to a network which focuses on non-premium sites then you are not going to get the best rates, its as simple as that, the rates you get are not based of what you think you deserve, its based off the advertiser demand on that network, and if the demand is for low quality sites, then that is what will perform best for that network. Propeller ads, is one of those networks.

    Theres not much of an argument here, I'm sure you still don't have much of a clue what you are talking about and its kind of apparent. Difficult statements you are failing, common sense statements you are passing.

    If you are going to use them, you need to learn to accept what comes with it, otherwise find another network.

    Hello everyone!
    Sorry for the long time silence, it was a hard week.

    Most forums have something bad to say about everything :)
    We have more than 50k registered accounts, thousands of active publishers, hundreds of banned cheaters, a lot of peoples who who've made 100 impressions e.t.c.
    I'm not surprised with negative reviews and know our weaknesses.

    About malware.
    We remove malware as soon as we get a report from AV scanners or our publishers.
    Guys, all networks are interested in keeping their feeds clean!

    Propeller Ads has a zero tolerance policy against malware, phishing and other scam.
    But, do you really think that those who are developing such type of software don't have a methods to bypass the AV checks?

    Could you please provide me a method you've tried to reach us?
    Email, support desk or what?
