    Well i know someone , at lease he said that he clicked once and he got banned it sounds totally wrong but thats what he said ! As far as i know first always comes warning sometimes you can get it twise and sometimes you will be just banned so better just send an E mail and let them know :)

    Agree, this is no reason to worry if you have clicked just once, by mistake. They know that it happens.

    If you only clicked your ad once, you are safe. Don't worry about it. Mistakes happen and Google is well aware of that.

    Nothing to worry about. Unless you are constantly clicking on it. Google won't ban you.

    hi

    Nothing will happn and you donot need to send them email,if they ask u can tell them that you was testing site and did by mistake and take care in future not to click any ad also there is a tool that google provide by which on ur browser all google ads wont show.

    Regards

    Alex

    A Single click is nothing to worry about, still you can email adsense support.

    If you email them about clicking your own ad by accident, you will receive a reply saying that it is no longer necessary to contact them for such accidental clicks. That is what happened to me.
