When you see things like that you really can't blame Google for being so tenacious. I'm hoping their intolerance starts to get the message across to the fraudulent people.
I might have to track this guy down. I can just make a clone of the program I use for my site....LOL....j/k.
Will be interesting when someone commits a high level of fraud with this gets caught, and winds up getting prosecuted. Just in case anyone doesn't know, this is a crime and if done on a significant level could end up with you in a lot of trouble.
As J.R. Ewing said "Once you lose your integrity the rest is easy" It is a crime and should be prosecuted. If there was more jail time being handed out for online fraud we'd see less of it.
Google should make a program that LOOKS like it does exactly what this guy wants, except instead of clicking real ads, it clicks high paying links that are Googles own links, which alerts Googles fraud dept, then Google terminates them for generating invalid clicks!! And Google should charge oh, atleast $250 for the 'cheat program' to cover some of the costs!! Heck, they could maybe even include a 'demo' where the user can 'test' it by 'making' $50.00 in clicks from links that are simply Google's own ads on high paying keywords and quickly show up on the reports. Making $50.00 from only about 50 clicks would convince any one to get it, IF they were wanting to cheat. I don't think it would be very hard for Google to make the site, with a name like clickbombadsense.com, a one page ad site, and use PayPal, or Googles own future payment system for payment would be all they would need. And of course the whois info would need to be a private listing so no one knows it's Googles, and any time some one reports Googles site to Google, they just thank them for the report!
