Can you get in trouble for clicking on another site's Adsense Ads?

    Can you get in trouble/banned if you click on somebody else's ads? Obviously not just for sport, but if I click on someone else's ads for legit reasons (or even by accident), can I get banned?

    If I click on someone else's ads, can I get in trouble? If I'm on this site and I accidental click on an ad, could I get banned from Adsense?

    Do you have a close association with the site? Was it set up from your IP address? If yes you could be banned. Google are good at spotting malicious clicks. I don't click on any friends ads ever. I think that's too extreme but I wouldn't risk it. If you're interested in an ad type its link into your search box.

    I don't think you can get banned for clicking someones adsense ads As long as it's not your adsense ads but I still wouldn't do it

    If No one clicks on anyone elses adsense ads no one will ever earn money. You must not click on your own ads on any site you own or anyplace where you can earn income as a result of someone clicking on an add in your post or page.

    You are absolutely right about that. As long as it's not malicious clicks because google will pick up on that and it might get that persons adsense account banned would you agree:)

    Even you are using a proxy you could get banned. That will cause you a great trouble. Don't click on your friends ads. If you want to get there, just copy the website below and paste it on your address bar.
