    I just tried logging in into my adsense to check the daily report and my account has been barred i log into to hotmail to read my emails and find this email from them

    What they are on about is i just recently bought out a quite a large forum off a admin who had other commitments it recently has come to my attention the previous admin was kicked off adsense for fradulant clicks, in the period of the previous admin having the fradulant clicks i was nothing to do with the forum.

    I was wondering where i stand with google as far as compensation goes as i had nearly $300 in my account. since i have administrated the forum there has been no fradulant clicks or an reason to ban my account, and neither has there been on any other one of my sites. I can offer 10 or so threads and screen shots that are stating that i have actually bought this forum off the previous admin so surely google can understand?

    Thanks for any advice in advanced

    p.s whats the best email to contact google on about this matter

    I think you should contact Google and explain to them what you have explained here..

    Was the domain transfered to you?
    Can you show that you weren't the owner when the invalid click activity took place?

    They can do anything they want with your account.

    https://www.google.com/adsense/static/en_US/Terms.html
    :( It's really bad luck, hope they will reinstate your account :(

    Good luck and keep us updated!!!

    They will re-instate it - it happened to me before.

    Just lay out the full facts. You must have added your google publisher account to the ads on the site you just bought, and that has triggered a red flag and the disabling because the site will have been blacklisted alongside the previous account which was disabled.

    Be sure to appeal using the proper format and form that they advised you to use.

    Write a polite email they will surely reinstate it if you are telling the truth. I have seen people having their account reinstated. Good luck!

    What is the official channel i should go through contacting them?

    Hopefully i will get the account back i have had this account for over a year and have earned the majority of it from my own sites and have never breached the tos, so it would be a real kick in the shin if i lost the money as it would be like loosing all my years work, and would effect my other sites which rely on the money from adsense to pay for their hosting

    The fact is i have told them the whole truth and can prove every single detail of what has happened so hopefully they will be nice

    A year ago, I was kicked of adsense because there were unauthorised clicks on my ads, but I had no idea about it. When I appealed the first time, it was to no avail, but a few months back, after taking some advice from a blog I read, I sent them an e-mail appealing for a second time, explaining in full that I had no idea who had been clicking on my ads and I had been in hospital at the time also. I told them that I had enjoyed working with adsense and would really like to make a final appeal to them before I give up with them altogether.

    I had an e-mail back saying that my account had been reinstated, so it might be worth a try.
