Does "Hide My Page From Search Engines" negatively impact Quality Score for PPC

It looks like I’m getting a lot of spam on some of my landing pages. I’m trying to see if this is crawlers finding the landing page organically or if it is click fraud. Currently I have this setting as unchecked - so the page is able to be seen by Search Engines. Will checking this box negatively affect my quality score?

Thanks for any feedback

Blocking search engines with a meta robots tag (which is how Unbounce does it when the “hide my page” option is selected) will not block Google’s landing page crawler, AdsBot-Google.

About 75% of the pages we develop on Unbounce are hidden from search engines intentionally, and we have not had any Landing Page Quality Score problems or crawler errors.
