Google AdSense are just a simple thief!

Now that I reached the amount when I am allowed to put my billing data, they disabled my account for "invalid clicks", whatever that might mean. I have never clicked any of my ads, and anyone who says different is a simple lier! And of course, there is no way to know WHICH clicks were that they consider invalid. They have to "protect their detection system". Detection system my ass. There is no detection system, but random selection of people they are going to rob. And of course, there is no contact data, email, or something, where you can get in touch with someone and at least try to see what went wrong.

Nice way to get free advertising. I don't want to hear anything of Google AdSense or any other Google service again!

Anyone knows how to remove the big blank space at the bottom of my site where it used to be the stupid Google ad? I removed all includes, but this one is included directly through Control Panel to which now I don't have the access.

Stupid, stupid, stupid cheaters and thiefs….

I've heard about this happening to other people as well - seemingly legitimate AdSense customers having their accounts disabled and having no fair way to appeal the decision. I'll just have to wait and see if the same thing happens to me or not.

You should be able to disable the advertising still… just remove the code from the site manager. Why don't you have access to the "Control Panel" ?

Thanks, Leiger. I was so furious, that I forgot about SM. It is not fair, really. They should at least provide me with dates and amount of clicks they consider invalid, as well as IP address, or at least where that IP address comes from. Somethihg that would justify this move, the lowest and the most wicked of all…

I was just wondering, what if this happened to Wikidot? The income from all of those free sites must be quite significant.

I have also had my adsense account terminated for 'illegal clicks'. Unfortunatly anybody can come along and spam click
your adds which i'm assuming its whats happened in your case. I guess checking the ip / area where the clicks came from
is a bit too much to ask from Google.

They have that info, for sure. Otherwise, how would they know about "iillegal clicks"? Uuuuuffff…

The problem is that kind of information can be easily faked.
