Spotting a scam advertising network is not that easy at all. There are so many advertising networks out there that I have communicated with. I think one of the biggest red flag is not responding at the right time. I have experienced this before. I once emailed an advertising network and I received gibberish response full of grammatical errors. What do you think?
 
One of the easiest ways to spot is check their pay rate. Some ad network in order to attract publishers offer high CPC or CPM rates. Some ad networks show zero or very small ad impression despite your website getting a lot of traffic.
 
If ad network reply you with nonsense grammar or overly repetitive replies, it's a scam. One platform almost clear my small earnings. They would promise high CPM, but once payout reaches, the story changes immediately. If the terms are not clear from the start, just know that there will be a big problem.
 
Once you see they are going to pay something too good to be real, just know that it's fake and a scam. In fact, there's no ads network that's playing more than Google Adsense.

This is always what I look out for. I can't imagine being in a situation where I fell for a story that is too good to be true. Once it gets to that stage, I am always careful with how I get involved.
 
Most scam sites are easy to spot with a quick Google search and by checking reviews for PTC or ad networks.
