Google Kills My AdSense Account

Today Google decided to kill my AdSense account.
Needless to say, I'm not happy about it.
I will explain why.
I received this message today:

Hello,

After reviewing our records, we've determined that your AdSense account
poses a risk of generating invalid activity. Because we have a
responsibility to protect our AdWords advertisers from inflated costs due
to invalid activity, we've found it necessary to disable your AdSense
account. Your outstanding balance and Google's share of the revenue will
both be fully refunded back to the affected advertisers.

Please understand that we need to take such steps to maintain the
effectiveness of Google's advertising system, particularly the
advertiser-publisher relationship. We understand the inconvenience that
this may cause you, and we thank you in advance for your understanding and
cooperation.

If you have any questions or concerns about the actions we've taken, how
you can appeal this decision, or invalid activity in general, you can find
more information by visiting
http://www.google.com/adsense/support/bin/answer.py?answer=57153.

Sincerely,

The Google AdSense Team

Of course I immediately appealed this and received this response:

Hello,

This message confirms that we've received your appeal submission.

We'll get to your appeal as soon as we can, though due to the high volume
of emails we receive, it may take us up to a week or more to process it.
If you've previously submitted an appeal for this account, you might not
receive a response to this or future appeals.

Also, please be aware that appealing the disabling of your AdSense account
does not guarantee that it will be reinstated.

If you have any questions or concerns about accounts disabled for invalid
activity, please visit
https://www.google.com/adsense/support/bin/answer.py?answer=57153.

Thanks for your patience and understanding.

Sincerely,

The Google AdSense Team




I believe this is a direct result of bad clicks by members of the forum:

We have a problem with harassment from a blog

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We have a website for roof repairs and construction work. There is a guy out there, that has a blog, netscammers.blogspot, who is claiming to catch scammers and fraudsters. One day, like 4 people told us they have found os online but they think that we are scammers. when we searched the address of our website on google, first result was a posting from this guy stating that we are scammers. We contacted this person, called no_muie, and he said that we need to pay him in order to get removed. He asked for 300 pounds. We paid and he removed us. All the bad results disappeared from google. Now, he is back. He asks for more money from us, or else. We are desperate, we don't know what to do. We have many customers and companies that we work with, what if this guy comes back with the postings. We don't want to pay him more money, he will just keep on asking if we just pay. Please, help us, we can pay you to help us get rid of this troll. contact us . Thank you very much.

We can all click "report abuse" on the top of the nav bar on his blogspot blog. If enough of us do it we can probably take it down

What a scumbag. If I knew how to help you I would. I tried reporting the blog for defemation, but there's a statement from Google saying that they don't remove blogs for that kind of thing and it can only be done through the US court system.

Hope you get this scumbag off the net.

Yeah very low, but they guy made money.

Anyways, I blasted his site to some gay porn forums and adult blogs. Used his email address. Thought that would be funny.

I also sent op a pm. I would be more then willing to help you get some sites up in front of his. Though I do think he is a genius is some way for doing what he did, I also think it is wrong.

If this is all legit then man I feel for ya. Surely some adsense bots can autoclick his ads and get him banned in no time.

stareounut - Your not too techy right? What made you decide to come to this forum to try and solve the problem? Just wondering that's all.

If your gonna throw any more money at this problem, then I would recommend hiring someone to either build some blogs/websites to make sure this scammer doesn't show up on google or to use the money for a lawsuit.

Where is your roofing business located?

So far I believe OP. I was taken by a similar scam about 7 years ago. No_muie is following the classic style of the confidence trickster. Pretend to be on the side of good and then secretly Rob people. Ask your self if some kid in Romania really has the best interests of all the people on the web at heart? The funny thing is he could probably set up a real blog fighting scammers and make money and get donations but this kind of person only knows one way and that is the BAD way.

(I AM real and my blog is real, but I'm NOT getting any donations...)

If all else fails, just take his site down by force. Google can't index what it can't crawl.

4) Your English is broken, your sentences unfinished, your cries for help seem fake to me. Are you from the same country, Romania? You are certainly not English.
5) Co incidence that you found BHW just like that?
6) Your $500 offer is a scam. Whoever wins it, if they do, will be scammed out of $500. Your plan is in motion and your ready to strike. Hopefully somebody here wont fall for this trick.

If nobody else can see this scam your all blind.


Makes sense. Really does. Now I feel bad about the xrumering. Damnit...

Re: We have a problem with harassment from a blog

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I am thinking stareounut is the scammer, just joined no proof bar one screen shotof an email which is easy to spoof!

I just chatted to no_muie who says the guy runs used car sites proporting to sell cars that do not exist. He has shut all but one down
http://www.united-auto-sales.con/

A quick search on google and you can see the reason he is pissed with no_muie http://www.google.ca/search?q=united-auto-sales.com he is just under the listing.

I used to scam bait and believe no_muie more than I do the OP you should too before siding with a scammer. Scambaiting takes a lot of time and these guys work on their own accord pissed off with scammers. A lot that I knew were system admins so had time to kill whilst maintaining networks etc ...

Also don't assume no_muie is in Romania!!

Re: We have a problem with harassment from a blog

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

you should attack his wallet.. 1) track all his sites if you can, and try to shut down all his money accounts (cpa/ad networks etc.) 2) shutdown his adsense acc: write a bot to click on his ads (or hire someone on fiverr..), scrape public proxies (elite...), and the work is done. 3) use duplicate content against him: copy & paste all his content on a new blog and start a massive backlink campaign to your new blog. if you know what you're doing, you may be able to make his blog disapear. (hard to do and not for the long run) you can do a lot of things.. (try to google "negative seo", this will also help you..)

This is the newest scam on the web, estorting money from people because of the bad press this one site gives them. Report his site to bloggger.com, who owns/opperates blogspot and he will be charged with a criminal claim by their corporate office.

I've seen this same thing in over a dozen cases in the last month from clients having their site reps damaged and being offered a buyout option to be removed.

You are in the right here and have all the leverage, as blogger will press charges and take it to court, as they have done the other scammers doing the same line of con. That is estortion, intimindation of threat within intent, as well as fraud for false claims against your site.

Blogger will take it down and post a retraction at the very least.

Tell them what is going on and they will bust him on it.

Also, I also recommend you write an article/post to all of the scam site directories about his site and what he is doing to you guys. Expose him, as he is trying to expose you.

_________________________________________________________

It appears to have taken some time for the forum members at blackhatworld.com to kill my AdSense account, but I believe they are responsible.
I had reached a figure of just over $90 and was hoping to receive a badly needed check from Google.

Let me know if you'd like to sponsor my blog.
I could sure use the cash.
;)

I got this message from a friend who runs a very prominent web site on the internet:

"Here's the sad reality (from experience)...

You'll get punished by Google because you're the only one that they CAN punish. You could block IPs of scammers to your site, but they've got a million IPs at their disposal, so they'd get around that easily. Think of it this way - was Google really bringing in a ton of revenue to your site? Just put it in perspective - scammer can't get you to stop publishing, so they want to hurt you the only way they know how.

I'm surprised you haven't had more DDOS attacks."
