    If someone came to your site and just kept clicking your links?

    It's called "Click Bombing" and it's bad. It could get your account banned.

    But Google is smart and they will automatically remove those fraud clicks, and refund advertisers. Its a different case if they came from your IP...

    Often the clicks are not counted as google know and are wise to this happening.

    Google does not use only one method to identify invalid clicks.

    They construct a full profile of the clicker, if it's fit to the owner then you got a problem.

    I wrote a post about it few weeks ago you find at:

    http://simply-adsense.com/blog/adsense-newbie/how-google-detects-invalid-click-in-adsense/


    of course this not the real methods as Google will not reveal the ways because hackers will find a way to bypass it.

    But it's a good point of view.
