    From the Rich Jerk:
    newbies, this is a warning to you! don't join adsense exchanges, if you don't want to find yourself receiveing the axe from Google. I know of two such sites; adsense-exchange dot com and adsenseclix dot com.

    STAY AWAY FROM THEM AND MAKE SURE YOUR MOUSE POINTERS DO NOT CONNECT WITH YOUR ADS.

    Been saying that all along.
    I am sure the majority of dp'ers will know this and follow through.
    The bad thing is, the noobies who are looking for a quick fix, will see these sites and jump in.
    After a bit, they will end up here crying that google banned their account.

    And this applies to all autosurfs, not just the adsense specific autosurfs.
    I am a member of several autosurf for cash programs and I see more and more sites come up where the google ads are disabled.
    If you use such sites, make sure you put in a site that has no adsense on it.
    Or better yet, use a splash page.

    only the other day a friend of mine came running to me and said "omg i just found a great place where you can get clicks! and he showed me adsense-exchange."

    we may have been saying that all along but n00bs don't listen. some don't anyway.

    He's actually a nice guy. The whole "rich jerk" thing is simply good marketing.

    I read adsense-exchange dot com and see nothing illegal about it. It is like this forum except you have to pay for your ads to show on different websites...

    yeah you're right. then it's not adsense-exchange dot com then. but i have this address, adsense-Xchange dot com in my browser history. i think that may be what i was reffering to, but i can't access it at the moment.

    In a previous thread (http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=55232) I've talked about adsensesurf.com and surf4clix.com. Now I can add adsense-clix.com and fetchclicks.com to the list. I am looking for more. Does anyone know more of these crazy traffic exchanges?

    Yeah, I'm not even that nice when someone says they were just banned, and claims they didn't do anything wrong :D

    How could the people joining these programs not realize they're breaking the TOS? It's ridiculous...

    No surprise. As I've been saying, Adsense is the new Gold Rush. Everyone wants a piece, and they'd rather not have to work for it, thank you very much. Lazy bastards.

    So if you cheat you will get banned? Shocker......

    I don't know why the Jerk bothered to send out that email. Idiots that cheat like that SHOULD get banned. Its Internet Darwanism.

    I like this idea of "Internet Darwinism". But we have to admit that some people rely in some sort of "Intelligent Design"... ;)
