Reproduced is a reply send to Google Adsense to which they have not responded. No warning was also given before termination.
Please refer to your email dated 8th Feb 2006. It says:
Congratulations!
Your Google AdSense application has been approved. You can now activate your account and start delivering Google ads and AdSense for search on your site in minutes. .......
Your email dated 17th May 2006 says:
Hello RB, Your AdSense account was found to be related to an account previously disabled for invalid click activity and we have therefore disabled your account.......
1) Please let us know which account was disabled for invalid clicks?
2) Were there any invalid clicks from 8th Feb 2006 to 17th May 2006? No. Deactivation is due to some previously disabled website.
3) We were not responsible for certain websites before Feb 2006.
4) We had kept the earnings on hold for over 2 months. Just when we asked the amount to be released, you send us an deactivation mail. If our intentions were unfair, we would have not put our earnings on hold and would have asked it to be sent (on accumulation for US$100).
5) Why was the application approved when you had in mind to disable the account?
6) Please visit the site and see for yourself if the ads have been wrongly put.
7) Why don't you ban the IP address from where the invalid clicks originate. How can a site owner/manager be held responsible if someone sitting in any other part of the world is playing mischief and accounting for invalid clicks. Do you mean to say that if we click on ads showing on someone else's website daily, then the adsense account on his site will be deactivated? We think the site owner/manager should not be penalized for someone elses mischief/mistake/deed.
8) Is it possible that if someone copies our google adsense code and puts it on his disabled site then our account will also be deactivated?
Our intentions are not to cheat anyone. Please reactivate our account.
Best Regards,
RB

Your AdSense account was found to be related to an account previously disabled for invalid click activity and we have therefore disabled your account. Publishers disabled for invalid click activity are not allowed further participation in AdSense and do not receive any further payment. The earnings on your account will be properly returned to the affected advertisers.
As outlined in our program Terms and Conditions, Google reserves the right to terminate any publisher's participation at any time.
when you are billion company we have expected a lot from you.but the company i.e., google is not protecting user interests.Why should we suffer because of somebody.the one does the mistake and we have to suffer.google is only concerned about their profit not the about publishers. while banning i not even received a warning email from google.but google is playing the good game.When i was not banned 13 members joined under google adsense through my refferal button. Now does the google do the same thing with the 13 members who joined under me.When you did invalid click activity you should be banned then itself.but google is banning after one or two months. And after banning ,google is saying that it will return the money to respective advertisers.but i don't know they are keeping the money in their own pocket.
Thanks Kupotek.But excuese me did google mention that those websites have traffic they only can participate.Nor else they mentioned about invalid click activity.It is very hard to bring traffic to your website.But each and every publisher is not sucessful when they started publishing.They were not sucessful in the begining.Today they are experienced thats why they get a lot of traffic. And today they know very well how to bring traffic to their websites.they know the techniques and what tools to use.I am saying all this because i am complete begginer.It will take time for me to learn the techniques to know how to bring traffic to my website.The only thing i want to say is from outside google kept a desire for publishers that u can earn this much amount.but when they enter inside they will not be kept for not more than six months .there account will be disabled for which they did not do any mistake.at last they will return with sad faces. People always care for the best.but when the best is not supportive for them they will throw it under waste.
We are poor but when we are given a piece of work we do it honestly.But today there is no value for honesty.My account was disabled for ivalid click activity if i want to do such a thing i use to reach $100 in my first month first day itself.My account used to fill up with dollars.why would i take so much time(four months) to reach $100. I am saying all this for google's good. google should change their policy.one should raise voice against this program policy.google will ban how many people? 61,000 ,1,00000,2000000,etc.,atlast there will be nobody to work for google. because at that time any body won't believe in this program .i already got cheated in many programs. www.ad-placer.comwww.virtpay.com , www.autoclix.com .any body can join me in this conversation.
I also had same issue...I sent mail but got no reply.. Someone purposely generated invalid clicks on my webpage ads but my account got banned without any warning !!
I Dont Understand Why Account Permanently Ban Punishment Is There As Every Time Publisher is Not Responsible For Generating Invalid Clicks !
Some Suggestions : Why its not like :
1) Generate Warning Mail And Inform To Publisher..Filter Invalid Clicks And Dont Pay For That
2) Goin Further If Invalid Clicks Continues Make Accoutn Balance To Zero
3) Display NO Ads where invalid clicks generated ie. javascript code will generate no Advertise for that specific webpage URL on which invalid clicks generated this is equal to Webpage Ban but option open to display ads on other websites / webpages..
4) Last Option To Ban Account If Invalid Clicks Continues...
Dont You Think That This Will Keep Happy To All Adsense, Adword Advertiser And ads Publisher ?
Is is fair to ban account permanently without any Notification or alert as anyone can do it with anyone account ?
If it is applicable only for small websites or for those who dont have much trafic on there websites then why Google Approve such applications ?
You were right mahesh.can you give your link.We all publishers should make union and raise voice against google adsense. google should change their rules.Google is giving preference to top publishers.This system should change.
Our account just got terminated today. There was a list of reasons but nothing specific. Invalid clicks I believe ? .. Is there a way to prevent that, if someone does it intentionally to sink the ship ? ..
Freinds..
Our accounts are getting terminated for reasons, of which, we are not aware ! .. We are not being warned and not given a chance to prove our stance and honesty ..
Let us rise against this evil, and bring back peace to us publishers. I will be very unhappy if the Google Authorities does not provide us with a solution.
We are a bunch of college kids who are trying to make the internet a better place and at the same time, trying to bring our country to the front line, giving it a little more highlight to the whole world.. but how do we support it ? our beer money isnt really enough to pay for hosting and other softwares that comes along the way..
Mr.Adsense, take a look into this matter and give us a solution !
I think they (adsense) should first warn instead of directly banning a publisher. They should at least explain in detail, the reasons for banning. I think google feels it has no competition.. and might is right. I had a high opinion of google until now.
My acount is gone before 1 year. my new site is getting traffic now. at that time, i think traffic was low and may be i had some enemies that don't wana get suceed. anyways, i want to acount active if they can help me, noone is replying from long time. i am assuring that mistake will never happened.....

I am also extremely disappointed that after three years of being loyal to google, being a champion, in fact of google, advising my community of users to watch the content in their posts so we wouldn't get associated with 'bad sites'.
even after 3 years, of good placement, and lots of effort in marinating the account I rarely got over 100 a month (had it on more than one site, the search seemed to be the most effective BTW).
I got the door shut in my face: slammed on my face and accused of ,basically dishonesty.
The site this program benefited was a non-profit, volunteer driven site that promoted the arts.
I was floored at both the accusation and the refusal to further look into the matter. ------------------I guess that's not what google is anymore, google has changed...
--we as publishers should not be permanently banned --We SHOULD be warned... ---The Clicks in questions should not be applied...and publisher should be warned...3 strikes and your out -better yet we should track down where they are coming from. --------------------
Some bitter truths
And folks, I also work for an SEO company (completely unrelated to my volunteer work with the non-profit sector) and I gotta tell you...Google already skims a percentage based on an average of what they think might be fraud. So you always get less...no big deal...until they accuse YOU of being dishonest.
-Someone mentioned competitors clicking on your site to get you banned. This is a very real scenario unfortunately. However, it mostly occurs when a competitor of a particular business clicks on another business in order to use up their account so that they can bump them from display). (if you buy adwords you have a base amount of 'clicks' purchased, once those clicks are used up, you don't show up) Got that?
-There seems to be no understanding or comprehension in Googles part given to the use of firewall IP's in schools, institutions or even the small towns of many ISPs.
--Something Should be done:
If, Google keeps forgetting about the little guy (who built google really and made it where it is today? ) Then they will lose our confidence.
With Yahoo/MSN and a slew of new adword programs across the web now. It seems that Google not only is pushing its people and original followers OUT but challenging them to do so.
the link says that coming soon . my account was also terminated i am head braked not knowing what to do is there is no one having the relavent idea that works to stop googles useless saying of invalid clicks i think we should do some thing unless we will be loosing every time.....
