Adsense giving away money or i am just losing my mind?

Ok, over the past few days money has come into my account. Besides the money from my websites, extra money has come into my account. I started thinking how could it come from? my websites? my blogs? it couldn't have come from them, somebody has to click on them so i can get paid. I have been very active on DP lately, they could have added it but i don't know.


What do you think?

 

Are you sure you didn't fall for one of those emails that I get all the time with DEAR SIR....OIL INDUSTRY/MONEY...NIGERIA....YOUR ACCOUNT....YOU KEEP 20% ?!!

Maybe that's where it comes from

Now, seriously, you mean about your AdSense account? Can it be that some previous people you referred to AdSense made money and G put some money into your account for this as part of this "affiliate" system?

 

Somebody may be using(abusing) your publisher ID.

I suggest you start using the allowed sites feature.

 

I have not reffered anybody to google adsense, nobody has my pubisher ID.

 

Anyone can get your publisher id from source code of your site.

 

Would that be a bad thing? I mean money is showing up in my adsense account from nowhere.

 

If someone has placed your code on a porn site or some illegal site or is using artificial/unnatural ways to create clicks...it is surely a bad thing.

 

So, the channel totals don't add up to the grand total?

Are you using affiliate products like firefox downloads etc?

Money wouldn't just appear from nowhere, it would have to be accounted for.

Option 1) Report it to adsense team
Option 2) Be happy & be quiet!

 

You have not made your opening statement very clear. Are you seeing money (unexpected amounts) in your adsense account?

 

DoA I will take Option 2. lol.

Here is one time extra money came into my account.
This morning i checked my account there was no clicks but $0.03 was there.

Can somebody explain?

 

CPM ads.....

 

It might be someone who put your adsense code on there site.
And probably put it on a website that is illegal.
Sooner or later you might be banned so watch out!

 

If I get banned I have a back up plan. bidvertiser.

 

Bidvertiser is no match for Adsense. The revenues are far lower.

 

Check your channels if you have earnings on your channels but no clicks its usualy CPM ads, however if you don't see any of income from any of your channels i would be careful, like you have been told allready in this thread and make sure you are using the "allowed sites" feature in adsense account.

 

thank you all for the advice.
