Default Click Fraud

Google, Yahoo! And other firms place ads on the websites of their affiliates, who receive a small cut of the revenue generated by each resulting click.

Unscrupulous affiliates can generated a stream of bogus commissions by repeatedly clicking ads on their own websites (or getting other people or machines to do so on their behalf).

The second form of click fraud: click on a rival company’s ads, displayed on websites or alongside the results of an internet search, and its budget will swiftly be exhausted.

Do you have anything to share about unscrupulous people who click and earn money the fraud way.

All that I would like to say is that Google Adsense users are involved with click fraud a lot, or so it seems. It's almost as if click fraud is Google's scapegoat when canceling user accounts. I myself got a warning email from them, but they would never disclose to me as to where this click fraud came from. It is very frustrating.

I've read that a lot of people have been getting their adsense accounts closed down by google even if they didnt click on their own ads. Once that happens, it's almost impossible to object this with them
