Are you an adsense rat?

    I'm just curious how many of you actually report people cheating adsense if you see it.

    As for myself, I do it when ever possible. Hey....It helps the honest adsense users.:D

    How many a month do you rat on?

    me = about 35permonth.

    What do you mean by reporting people cheating Adsense?

    what does that even mean or entail?

    Do you actually go looking for them? I can say I only see 1 or 2 a month, and no I don't report them. Got better things to do.

    Its their duty to find out who is cheating them. Its their business and they are making profit out of it.

    By cheating google - do you mean people who click on their own ads etc?

    If so, how do you know they are doing it?

    Not quite....
    Here is the right sentence...
    Its their duty to find out who is cheating them. Its their business and mostly they are making profit out of it.

    I believe Google does not need to be informed of the AdSense cheaters because they are working on their click counting methods on a regular basis and everyday it is getting better and better.

    No wonder why billions of dollars are spent over the Google Ads because webmasters and advertisers know their ads would be clicked by the real web surfers and not cheaters.

    If it's a flagrant violation, I sure do report them. It's called self-policing. Yes, google may find them eventually, but now they might find them quicker. Those who get up in arms about people who report likely have no Adwords account.

    If you know that someone is robbing money from your bank and no one else notices it, would you inform the bank? Remember, your money is deposited in the same bank?

    i am owner of funscrape.com and 123friendster.com, i never clicked on my ads but once in early days of adsense i wasn't know that more then 3 ads units are no allowed on a web page. but someone informed me and i fixed everything but i told adsense support team about my issue but they didn't banned my account. i am agree, if your site is clean content then you will never get banned!!
