My adsense account has been banned for about a year. I received one payment from Google for around $100 before being banned. When I was banned I'm pretty sure it was for invalid clicks coming from multiple sources. For example: I had friends that thought they were "helping" me by clicking on ads on my site. I found this and a few other things out after being banned. I got to thinking today about this and figure that the majority of the $100 I was paid was probably also generated from the invalid clicks. I'm wanting to send the money back to Google. Sure I know to Google $100 is nothing and they'll probably laugh, but to me if it isn't legit money, I shouldn't have it. Keeping it would most likely be dishonest. Does anyone know the address I should send a check to and to whom the check should be made payable? (I'm guessing to just make the check out to Google.)
if you feel that you don;t deserve the money which came from click fraud, donate it to some charity who need it most
You dont have the envelope anymore? Just return to sender with a note attached. And usually if they ban you for click fraud they would take out the money that was in question....
