Predatory/Scam I don't know what kind of predatory/scam IPQualityScore.com is or why they have targeted my IP address but I have repeatedly tried to contact them and have heard nothing back.I will not pay them for targeting me.DO NOT TRUST. To update the situation,after reading this review I was contacted by IPQualityScore.com and they quickly corrected erroneously blacklisting my IP address. Advice for anyone falsely being blacklisted by a company like this,I had to write this negative review for them to respond to me and fix their error.There seems to be a lack of laws and regulations regarding private companies falsely blacklisting individuals IP addresses.If you are experiencing this and the company ignores you or refuses to work with you on fixing it you can file a complaint with the FTC or the FCC depending on your situation.

Seems like a nice service, after all There were some initial problems creating an account, but they kindly helped me, and I'm currently reviewing the service's features before deciding on the paid plans. For now it seems like a great deal.

This service provider classifies IPs… It was quite an act to reach anyone from IPQs at all, the background is that many scammers try to blackmail IPQs by means of bad ratings that the IPs are listed positively again. The best way to send a false positive report to IPQs is either to write to the co-founder on LinkedIn or to create an account with IPQs and submit a support request. Also prove that you are the legitimate owner IP and do not belong to a proxy/BotNet. e.g.: Registration number of the company in your own country, screenshots of the server and IP address in the admin panel of the hoster "remove important info!", proof that the local IP is registered to your own company It remains at -2 stars due to the major problems that the whole thing caused. Original problem: This service provider classifies IPs with a score of 99 without any proof or evidence. My e-mail to the False Positive Team and the request for evidence for this classification has not yet been responded to. A check of the IP with other service providers has also not revealed any anomalies. An inquiry to our ISP has also provided no evidence that there is any problem that IpQualityScore claims to have.

Ruins legitimate website traffic Their VPN/proxy detection data service is very draconian and leads to many false positives that ultimately degrade the service experience of many clients I have worked with, who have had their users' residential and cellular IP addresses falsely assigned a high fraud risk. I myself have had several instances where I have been blocked by sites using data from IPQS despite using low risk corporate or residential IPs, needless to say causing endless headache. I would not recommend using this company for proxy detection unless you are looking to alienate legitimate website visitors. Additionally, they are not very receptive to requests to unblock IP addresses and seemingly have an arbitrary and secretive process by which they assign fraud scores.

The best fraud detection service I've been using IPQS for nearly 2 years now and I'm confident to say that it's the best fraud protection/invalid traffic filter out there. I run a few websites and I monetize their content using display banners, mainly from Google Ad demand. Anybody that works as a publisher for Google Adsense/Google AdExchange knows how sensitive Google is when it comes to invalid traffic, and it's ultimately our job to make sure our traffic is clean and legitimate. That's why I use IPQUALITYSCORE services to filter out bots, proxies, and VPNs from my websites. Just include a simple JS tag or PHP file and you are all set. I've tested similar services, but IPQS was the one with the most accurate detection and fewer false positives. I really recommend them.
